Which Version of the Thule Hullavator Can Fit on Aero Shaped Crossbars
Question:
I have 2 pair of hullavators that mount to the square bar type of racks. Have a new vehicle that requires me to get a new roof rack. I want to get the aero type bars due to the square bars being very noisy. Are there adapters that would allow me to mount my curent hullavators to the newer aero bars? Thanks in advance!

Expert Reply:
Only the latest version of the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 is compatible with aero shaped crossbars. So your options at this point would be the new Hullavators and an aero shaped roof rack like you want (expensive I know...), or a square bar roof rack for the vehicle you have that uses longer crossbars to use the Hullavators you currently have. There isn't an adapter for the rack you have now to allow it to be used on aero bars.
If you let me know what your vehicle is I can see what roof rack options you have as well.
