The 2016 Hyundai Elantra GT has a bare roof so I am not sure I understand what you are referring to as the existing rails but if you can send me a photo I would be glad to clear that up for you. If you are referring to the moulding (see photo) then I recommend using the Yakima JetStream Crossbar System which is composed of part # Y00425, part # Y53TR, and part # Y00248.

I like the JetStream system because it has aero shaped cross bars that are both wind resistance and less noisy than a round or square cross bar. It also has integrated tracks as well as trim-free rubber strips. It all comes with a lifetime warranty and is super easy to install.

If you can tell me what you will be using the roof rack for I would be glad to offer some additional recommendations.

Answer 1

To add just 1 lock core for the Yakima ForkChop #Y02117 you can use part #Y8771-A144 for the lock core, part #Y8772-A144 for the key (or keys if you want more than one), and then you also need the Control Key #Y8007835 to install the lock core.

Since you have a wheelbase/axle spacing of 38 inches the correct hanger kit for slipper springs would be the part #HAP-105-205-01. And then for a 7k trailer axle the u-bolt kit you'd want would be the part #APUBR-8. I attached the diagram to use…
