Look what I found in the Junk Yard...

OEM snowboard holders, for the OEM roof rack. Pulled them off a 1994 I found in the local scrap yard. Just have to figure out how to change the lock cylinders, and I'll be in business!

 

Also grabbed a new lower dash piece (don't need one with a gauge hole in it now), a set of OEM spark plug tools (Didn't have those before!), and a skid plate for the transfer case, which mine oddly didn't have.

Good score

 

 

You might want to take them to a locksmith to see what it would cost to have a key made, depending on the cost of the cylinders.

Those cylinders usually have a code stamped in them. If you find the code, no need to even remove it, just call it in and pick up the keys....

Call it in to where? Nissan?

 

I already pinged Alkorail (sp?) about it, so I'll see what his reply is.

Never dealt specifically with those Nissan ski/board racks but truck boxes, gang boxes, utilities, etc. have similar cylinders and usually have a 3-4 number code stamped right by the keyhole. A locksmith can usually make one from that code. I have done it more than once, most recently on a Yakima roof mount tote a buddy borrowed for a trip. Locksmith made him a key for 9 dollars...

Nice! I love the ones I got (not Nissan ones, I think they are Thule actually) with a set of bars a while ago, though I use mine for fishing rods and sometimes an ice scraper

I've bought a set of these in 2012. I don't know what for, here in Brazil it doesn't snow, even at the south where I live all that happens is an inch of half, 1/2 mile high in the mountains, one or two days a year

 

But when I saw it on eBay I thought: "I want it!"

 

Maybe a kitesurf board can fit there... but I don't play it
