Will One Roof Rack Fit More Than One Vehicle With Naked Roof
Question:
We have an Infiniti 2006 G35 4 door and a Honda 2008 Accord 4 door.. Both are naked roof cars. Is there a way of getting a single rack that can be used with both cars? The Honda is a wider car. Can we use a wider bar on the narrow car - I understand the wider bar will stick out and everyone will have be careful when going in and out. I just want to know all the options..

Expert Reply:
You could use the same bars on both cars, but the feet that hold to bars to the car are vehicle specific.
The Rhino Rack Bars # RRVA126B-2 have been determined to fit both the 2006 Infiniti G35 and the 2008 Honda Accord. You can also use the same legs, and part # RRRLKVA.
The fit kits are not the same. The Infiniti uses the custom clamps and pads part # DK156 to attach the crossbars to the car, and the Honda uses # DK184. This is because of the different vehicle roofline shapes. The bars will work with both sets of feet.
