Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today we're gonna take a real brief look at this replacement wingnut for your Thule cargo boxes. This is going to replace one wing knob for your Thule cargo carriers. This is going to fit M6 bolts. Now those carriage bolts are sold separately, but you can find them here at etrailer.com and this is directly from Thule, so you can have the confidence that this is going to work for you as the correct replacement if you are in need of a wing knob. Well, that's gonna conclude our brief look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you.
Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

My experience as a customer has been amazing. First, I was just happy to find custom parts for my Thule roof top storage. It's an older model so I am not always sure that newer parts are compatible. The price was fair, and sometimes you just need a couple pieces to make something like new again. These wingnuts are very convenient for taking the storage on an off of my car, but they crack over time. It's possible to DIY, but then you lose some of the ease of the shape, or it might not match the set--- which for me, I tend to notice those things.
I am very pleased with my Thule carrier which has lasted a long time, but happy I found etrailer to replace the critical infrastructure :). Now I get to enjoy and extra long lasting product to it's fullest.
The delivery was quick and the customer service people and experience is pretty amazing. They don't bombard you with advertising.
These are a perfect replacement for the my roof top carrier "U" mounts.
So happy to find this item!
They fit my x-cargo and I am happy
Parts as advertised. direct replacement for aging Sears X-Cargo Sport u-bolts
Great ease of ordering and arrived 2 days later. Awesome job.
Thanks
Exactly as advertised. Used it to mount an old Yakima space booster cargo box, and it fits perfectly in the existing box mounting holes and on round or square bars. You can't beat the price anywhere.

Excellent. Just moved the box to another vehicle yesterday and still in great shape.
My Thule Rooftop Cargo Box is 15+ years old and the carriage bolts had rusted so bad I used a bolt cutter to remove them. The rust had also made the wing nuts useless. I searched local hardware stores and the big box retailers (HD & L) but no one had the pieces I needed to replace them. I resigned myself to adapting the attachments and rigging up something that would work.
On a whim, I searched Thule Replacement parts on the web (I know, I should have done that first) and eTrailer came up with exactly what I needed!
Within a few days I had the parts in hand and the Cargo Box is good as new! I'll be coming back when it comes time order a hitch...eTrailer is a great find!
Exact replacement for Skyline Sport Rack carrier.
Parts fit and delivery fast. Thank you.
I own a Thule Big Mouth Roof Mounted Bike Rack - Frame Clamp - TH599XTR. The design comes with 2 small nuts to attach the rack to the roof bars. This wing nut makes it much easier and quicker to put the rack on the car roof.
Local hardware and bulk material stores didn't carry products or couldn't take the time to post that that they did on their website - etrailer.com did! etrailer.com online specifications gave me the confidence that materials were what I needed. Materials were direct replacements as expected.
Order was packaged and shipped the evening that the order was placed. I was able to start the trip on time and without the need to rig something together.
Thank you etrailer.com!
Etrailer has some pretty obscure parts for a relatively old cargo carrier that I purchased second hand. Aside from trying to match what I needed to the product numbers, the service was good, the delivery was quick, and the parts were exactly what I needed.
Some of my Thule equipment is so old that the plastic is breaking down on the wingnuts. It as great to find these available, at a great price. Note that these have a longer "shoulder" than the standard Thule wingnuts. No problem, it actually makes both nuts easier to turn when you pair one of each.
I need a replacement parts for a SportRack rooftop cargo box I purchased years ago from [store]. It appears [store] does not sell these or parts for them anymore. The part number for the SportRack brackets we’re identical to these, except these have a “TH“ in front of the part number. They worked perfectly when they arrived and are exactly what I needed.
Parts are good as usually comes from Thule. However ordering from Thule directly is not an easy process and for parts in particular. etrailer has very good site and easy process of finding parts and I appreciate that. Plus, I got all emails tracking my order, and that is great work. Thank you very much. Next order for Thule things I'll do on etrailer as well.

Just what I needed to make my rooftop carrier like new again. Tough to find part but found it at etrailer at a great price and quick delivery too. Thank you!
Replacement U bolts and wingnuts for my Sears Cargo carrier were impossible to find until I found etrailer. My old ones were stripped. These were a perfect replacement. Good prices, fast shipping and UPS tracking made this a perfect transaction. Highly recommend etrailer.
Purchased replacement parts for my Thule sidekick cargo carrier. The parts were exactly the pieces I needed.
After I dropped and broke one of the 4 nuts holding my bike racks to the car, I purchased 4 new ones to replace the old, brittle originals. They came in a couple days and fit just like the originals. Thanks etrailer!
I had lost one of these fasteners from my Sears roof top carrier. I seen these and took a chance and they ended being the exact same as the originals. I bought 6 just in case I would ever lose or break my current ones. At the price listed I could replace all 8 at [a low price], good deal for guys like me who lose stuff.
Great product selection, excellent descriptions / pictures on website, fast shipping, highly recommend!
Replacement parts for my Thule cargo box as the original parts were cracking and worn...no worries on vacation!
We bought a used Sears X-Cargo Sport 20 Cargo Carrier but it was missing 3 of these wingnuts. Searched online and found etrailer.com had the most comprehensive details about which part would fit as well as the best price. Best of all, the shipping was very reasonable. Excellent experience thank you.
I bought these as replacements when I bought new U bolts since mine had rusted badly. I would definitely recommend replacing both at the same time If rusted since there is no way to clean rust or other gunk like sand from inside the nut. Both parts shipped the same day as I ordered and fit perfectly (as OEM parts should!). This past year has been a breeze mounting my carrier without fighting the rusty parts.
Perfect replacement hardware for Thule roof cargo box.

The wingnut is still working. Its used on a roof top cargocarrier, and was the perfect replacement for the original part.
