Question:
Hi! I purchased a pre-owned vehicle that has a lockrack on the roof but the retailer did not have a key for it. Based on my research online it looks like there isnt a way to find out which key will fit without trying them in person. I was wondering if you knew of a sneaky way to find out what key will fit? Thank you!

Hey Nick, thanks for reaching out. LockRack only puts their key numbers on the keys themselves, so without those, there isn't another way to know exactly which key will unlock your rack. They only way is to try them all and see which one works.
What I've seen people do in the past is order each key we have available, find out which one works, then return the others. That will be your best bet. Here are the keys we have available:
Key number SH.21.12 # LR94VR
Key number B.13.01 # LR86FR
Key Number LR.20.07 # LR34VR
Key number BV.27.05 # LR22FR
Key number S.23.11 # LR47VR
Key number J.02.02 # LR54VR
