To add a set of locks to a Rhino Rack roof rack you will need the Rhino-Rack Locking Endcaps for Vortex Aero Crossbars item # RRVA-LEC4. These will secure any accessories you mount on the crossbars.

To add a Rhino-Rack roof rack to your 2023 Subaru Crosstrek you will need the following parts:

Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 46" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA118B-2

Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Raised Factory Side Rails item # RRSX100

I have linked a couple of installation and review videos below so you can see how to get these parts set up.
