Question:
I need the piece that’s in the picture for an old Thule summit You do have one that looks a lot like it, but it’s definitely not the same. Could you help me and guide me in the right direction and if I can’t find the part is there something that you would recommend I could use?

Hey Daniel, thanks for the picture! I checked with Thule, and it looks like what you're looking for is the Replacement Quick On/Off Bracket for Thule Time Travel Series Cargo Boxes # TH04973 which may not look the same but will still work fine as a replacement.
The original that came with the Summit has been discontinued and was replaced with this one, which is why it's not identical.
If there is anything else I can do for you, please feel free to drop a comment and let me know!
