    So i was getting ready to mount the roof rack on the dub when i discovered that I misplaced the key to lock and unlock the rack to the car.

    Is there a place that can cut me a new set of keys for my OEM roof rack or do I have to go to the dealer?

    i'd start with racks unlimited, or somewhere like truck outfitters. maybe they have something else with a common lock?

      Yes, tell them the name of your system and there should also be a serial # of some kind on the tumbler that they'll need. They will either have a key in stock or can get you one.

      Edit: just saw you have an OEM rack, I believe they can still get you a key. I had an OEM rack on a mk3 that I bought and didn't have a key for and they were able to get me one.

        I Believe Oem Vw Roof Racks Are Thule, And I'm Certain There Is A Thule Dealer In Calgary That Could Be Of Assistance, I Thinks Racks Unlimited.
        1) 2007 Candy white MKV GTI. DSG, votex kit, 19" Privat netz, tinted tails, smoked side markers & mirror signals, 20% tint, TT stubby, APR sport 3" turbo back exhaust, ABD stage 2 cold air intake. GONE.
        2) 1993 Green Corrado VR6. ABD intake. FK Silverline coils, Zimmerman cross drilled & slotted rotors. GONE.

          They are kinda thule. As far as i know, Votex is a division of Thule, but a lot of parts are different. I would think if anything was the same though, the lock cartridges would be.
