Replace Missing Key on Yakima SkyBox Roof Cargo Box
Question:
Help, Lost keys to Yakima skybox in a move - no idea where they are or what kind it was - I’m assuming from all other blogs here A135? But now I have a cargo box that is locked it seems on both sides and no way of figuring out what number lock is? I bought it over 12 years ago. Is there any hope here to get a replacement set or remove the locks etc.? thanks so much

The only way to determine the key number would be to drill out one of the lock cores, remove it so it's more or less intact and get the lock number that's engraved of the outside of the core. The problematic thing here is getting the lock core removed without completely damaging it. If you can successfully do that, please reply with the lock number and I'll get you the part number for the replacement lock and key.
Honestly, your best bet would be to have a locksmith drill out the locks and remove the cores and just replace the locks. For replacement parts, you'd need two locks like # Y8771-A137 (sold individually), two keys, part
# Y8772-A137 which are also sold individually and one control key, part # Y8007835. You'll need the control key to install the replacement locks.
