Question:
How do I swap out locks so I can use the same key on both locks?
asked by: Bob S
Expert Reply:
Hey Bob! Not sure what locks you're talking about but I saw you previously purchased the Yakima EXO Swing Away item # Y54ZR and the Yakima SnowBank Ski and Snowboard Carrier item # Y57VR. A great perk of Yakima's products is you can buy larger lock core kits 6 item # Y07206 or 8 item # Y07208 and have all your Yakima accessories controlled by the same key.
If this isn't the lock system you're looking for, go ahead and comment below with some more information about what you're wanting to do and I'll be happy to look for some options.

Hey Bob, did the Yakima lock core kit work out for matching the keys on your EXO Swing Away and SnowBank carrier? Knowing how it went could help others trying to streamline their Yakima setups too.
