You can add a replacement lock core to your Thule Weekender cargo box, using the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders item # TH450200. I have attached a picture below that will show you what it will look like. If your push button latch looks different then this go ahead and email me back a picture and I will try to find a solution for you.

I have added a link to a video review as well for you of the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450200.
