Looking for a locksmith

Im wondering if anyone knows how to pick a simple lock. I need the locks picked on my Yakima snowboard mounts so I can change out the lock cores.

If you don't care about them, could you drill them?

That had crossed my mind, but I want to make sure I don't mess up the casings for the cores.

dont drill or do anything like that... i dont remember the name of it but theres a website that you can order keys from that work... you have to get the numbers off the lock cylinder (they are small but if you look hard you can see them) i did that for my thule roof rack but they had keys for all sorts of types of them... it was like $15 shipped for 2 of them which is cheaper than new cores too

Already got new cores. I couldnt just order a key since the cores are in a casing and the number is inside the casing. I ordered 2 new cores from Yakima to match my keys.

I think I got everything worked out though.
