Can Yakima Rail Grab Lock Cores be Swapped into Skyline Towers
Question:
I have 4 lock cores in my current rail grabs. Is there a way to remove those and install them into a 4 pack of the SkyLine Towers? This would be going on my 2018 Toyota Highlander XLE with flush side rails

Helpful Expert Reply:
If you unlock the Yakima cores you can use the change key part # Y8007835 to remove the cores from the old rack and then install them into the Skyline towers # Y53TR. Yakima hasn't changed their lock core design so this would work easily.
