Question:

Hello, I have the Thule Xsporter Pro 500 XT for a 2011 Ford F-150 pickup. I need to get the replacement clamp lock housing #8523163001. I have the original N135 lock cylinder. What Key do I need to purchase? The universal key, or I saw several other ones listed. Thanks.

It sounds like you're looking for the Replacement Clamp Lock Housing for Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack part # 8523163001. If you need to swap lock cores to the new housing you will indeed need the change key, Universal Change Key for Thule One Key Locks part # 853-1251. The change key will allow you to pull the lock core out and reinstall, the unlock key you have is what you will use with it to lock and unlock, if you need an extra we have them like part # THKEYN135 for your N135.
