Always a pleasure to do business with etrailer! Products as described.



by:

E Trailer provides excellent parts and service.



by:

Installed and works, I had four locks keyed to N013; needed two more for a hullavator, it was great to get two locks keyed to the same locks as the rack; it was shipped the same day it was ordered and arrived (in Canada) 10 days later which was great, it came by mail, least cost option for shipping for small and low cost items.



by:

ETRAILER IS AWESOME!! I have bought a lot stuff from them and they always ship fast. They had the number cylinder I needed in stock to complete my locking racks. This Cylinder was perfect, easy to instal and works beautifully. Thanks George J



by:

Works as stated. I wanted all my locks and the snug-tite hitch pin lock to use the same key. Super easy installation.



by:

I appreciate etrailer keeping these in stock when they were difficult to find from Thule. Good, prompt response.



by:

The Thule bike rack from etrailer is excellent! And the customer service is too! Chelsey S. was my customer service person and she followed through and checked up all the way through. I had lost the lock off the rack but next day my husband found it in the street. Long story short had ordered it already and etrailer was wonderful taking the lock back. Did I say or if I haven't reviewed the bike rack yet I will - so easy to put on, take off myself, etc. Anyway from now on all my trailer stuff will be from this wonderful company.



by:

Great replacement for the replacement lock cylinder I lost. etrailer made it all so easy.



by:

Locks work great and etrailer customer service is stellar - I knew these were out of stock when buying, and etrailer kept me inform about estimated delivery time.



by:

A perfect fit. If they are not made by Thule, you can't tell the difference. I've used aftermarket lock cores and they always fall out. These are very snug and secure. I already had some locks that used the same key, so I ordered these to avoid having multiple keys.

Now I can securely lock my kayak to my securely attached Thule rack on my Sylvan Sport Go camper / trailer (see picture).

You can't go wrong with etrailer.com . They have what you need for trailers, cargo, as well as other accessories.



by:

Thule products are typically solid and I have been a fan. Ordered two key cylinders to match with my equipments for one-key access. One of the cylinder is defected upon received as it would not retain in the hole. Upon closer inspection it is missing a inner tab for retention purpose. (Noticed the empty slot on the barrel in the picture.). I was surprised as this is a product quality escape from Thule. Called etrailer for customer support and was able to arrange for a replacement. I appreciate the good customer support.



by:

Lost key so ordered new lick and key set. Also ordered wxyra set of wheel straps. Everything works perfectly! Love the parts and bike rack. Plan to order other replacement parts soon, as backup.



by:

A friend passed away leaving a car and bicycle rack that were to go separate ways but the lock had no key nor any key numbers. There were 2 new looking Thule N series keys with no lock to be found. A replacement lock was around $75 and switching wafer 2 for wafer 3 made 4/5 wafers fit and seemed good enough until I saw your reasonably priced replacement numbered cylinders. As you can see it worked perfectly.



by:

Etrailer sent me only 3 out of 4 lock cylinders. I contacted customer service and they promptly furnished the missing lock cylinder.



by:

Great fit, easy installation.



by:

Thanks to etrailer I was able to add the lock to my thule bike tray without having additional keys to potentially loose. Price was extremely reasonable and shipping time was as listed.
Thanks etrailer!
Below is my mountain bike securely locked down to my Thule wide mouth bike tray on a 09 dodge journey.



by:

etrailer made it easy to get a universal key to change out the lock cores in my cartop case and provided the instructions on how to do it. Thanks so much!



by:

I recently got a Thule roof rack for my new car. I wanted to use just one key for all my locks in already in use on my other roof rack, bike rack and other Thule accessories. Etrailer had the lock cylinder number I needed and I ordered 4 more locks. They shipped them quickly and they arrived. They were installed and function as expected. Etrailer always has what I need at a reasonable price.



by:

I purchased this for my Audi A4 base roof rack system. One of the original locks fell off and this was a PERFECT replacement. The price was fair and the service (correspondence) from etrailer was great! Overall I had a wonderful experience and I wouldn't hesitate to use etrailer.com again.



by:

I needed new locks cylinders for my Thule Ski Racks and found etrailers prices to be the best. They were delivered within the time frame mentioned and fit perfect.



by:

I was able to get the lock cylinder that matches my existing key and locks. Ordering was easy, shipping was fast, and the price was reasonable. Very impressed!



by:

Product worked great! Just as expected & fast delivery.



by:

Exactly as promised. Original lock cores that allowed me to make all my Thule equipment work off the same key. (FYI, if you haven't done this before, you'll also need a Thule Change Key, sold separately, to swap the lock cores -- got mine from etrailer as well).



by:

It’s a lock core - not more to say



by:

Lock worked with my existing locks and keys. Perfect. I lost a plastic piece that held my lock, and I had only three locks. I was able to get the plastic piece and the lock here, and it’s as if I didn’t lose it!

See what our Experts say about this Thule Accessories and Parts

  • Thule Lock With Code 003 Replacement
    The correct replacement key for any lock with the "003" lock core number stamped on it will be the Thule Replacement Key # THKEYN003. This key will work on any lock like the # THLOCKN003 that has the 003 key code. In order to remove a defective lock, you will need to use the universal change key that came with your Thule box- so it's not completely useless and will be required to change out the locks. If you need a new change key, you can use the # 853-1251.

  • Thule Replacement Key and Lock for Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box TH629907
    Thank you for purchasing the Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH629907. I am sorry you're having an issue with a broken key. For a new key you can use part # THKEYN003. You can try using needle nose pliers to remove the fragment of the broken key. If this is not possible you will need to drill out the lock core to allow it to be replaced with part # THLOCKN003. To install the new lock core you will use Universal Change Key for Thule Locks # 853-1251 which is shown in the linked video.

  • Replacement Key Recommendation for Sportrack Accessory with Lock Core K003
    For replacement keys and lock cores, you will want the Replacement Lock Cylinder, # THLOCKN003, and Replacement Key, # THKEYN003. Thule purchased SportRack a while back and changed the key codes from K to N, so that is why the key code is slightly different.

  • How to Remove Old Thule Lock Core and Replace New N003 Core
    The exact replacement lock core you are looking for is the part # THLOCKN003, but you are going to have to get the old key out of the core before it can be removed. Basically what has to happen is that with the lock unlocked you'd need to insert the Thule change kit part # 853-1251 and once it's fully inserted you'd be able to then pull the core out and reverse the process to install the new core. Best option for getting old key out might be to contact a locksmith depending on how flush...

  • Recommended Cable Lock For Bell Bike Rack
    The Bell Sports Rack will not be compatible with the Thule keys you mentioned. They are different manufacturers. Sports Rack is a sub company of Thule, so that is why you see the names combined, but Bell is a different company all together. The replacement keys for Thule like # THKEYN003 will not work with your Bell Carrier. To lock your bikes to your rack you may want to consider using a cable lock like the Deadbolt 10' Long Cable Lock # e98891.

  • Is Lock Included With Replacement Endcap For AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack Crossbar
    The # TH1500052333 package has the replacement endcap and does not include a locking screw you asked about. If you have lock cores on the legs of your roof rack you can order a lock core. Just type THLOCK in the search box with the 4 digits you have on your key, so if you have a key with N003 on it you would type # THLOCKN003 for the replacement core. If you are looking for the plug that fits in the hole on the replacement endcap that would be part # 8524023006.
