Just FYI on the gas caps. For any of you with a Yakima rack with locks, the Yakima keys are a perfect fit for the locking caps. Just take apart the lock mechanism on the gas cap and grind down the pins with the Yakima key inserted. Fifteen minute job. Now my cargo box, tower locks, and gas cap are all keyed the same. 3 keys into 1. Now I'm looking to have a locksmith rekey my water fill to match the Yakima key. I can feel my pocket getting lighter already (in multiple ways). Erik
