Some butt holes in the mountains tried to open or steal my Yakima box today. I guess they thought there might be skis in it.
They got it open and found out there was nothing in it…but did some damage. The front and side look like a screw driver was used to pry it open. If you’re familiar with these boxes, they also broke two of the inside “ball shaped snap clips”. Those are riveted on and should be real joy to try and find. Anyone got a damaged Yakima box lying around I can steal from…I didn’t think so.
Anyone have any ideas what I can use to seal up the plastic shell? I think I will try heating it up with the heat gun to get the plastic back in place, but I need to use something to seal up the tears. Any ideas? I would prefer to use something black to keep the box looking decent.
Thanks for your help.
