Exclamation Roof Rack End Caps?

So I have been having the most ridiculously hard time finding one. Does anyone have any idea where I may be able to get one? I had an R60S years ago, sold it when I moved because I had way too many cars, and stored my spare parts because I knew I would be back. Got another and went to get my parts and one single end cap (where the lock is) is missing and I simply cannot find it. I have contacted multiple vendors as well as a dealer and no one seems to be able to point me the right direction. I really am not trying to spend another couple hundred for a whole new setup over one end cap. I know it is not necessary, but I don't want to deal with the eyesore. Any and all help would be appreciated!

I ordered 2 the other day. Should be here around the 20th. Curious if my spare thule locks will fit in the hole they look almost identical. I might try and swap one into the caps I have. Less likely to lose one if I keep the end caps locked.

Dope. Thank you for posting it. I'm going to order a pair and new locks and see what happens. Just insane no one makes them specifically for the R60. I even tried to work with some 3D printers on Fiverr and no one even wanted to try it.

How is it so freaking hard to find a replacement? It seems like it's literally just the R60 that doesnt have the option.
