Hi. Regarding SightLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Flush Side Rails Item # Y64AR. Are you able to use the lock cores on the towers? I watched a video and I was unable to see where you would put the locks. Thanks.

Yes, the SightLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y64AR can be locked with the Lock Core Kit # Y07204. Yakima changed the design slightly and there are 3 pieces to this tower system (as opposed to the normal 2), with the middle piece being the part that the lock core installs on. This gives you a much cleaner aesthetic while still providing security to your roof rack.
