Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2013 Jetta SportWagen to Carry a Thule Weekender Cargo Box
Question:
Hello - I have inherited my fathers old Thule Weekender and I am looking to mount it on my 2013 Jetta Sportwagen with factory installed rails that run front to back. Can you recommend a rack system that would work? Thanks!

To continue with the high quality Thule line of products to mount your Weekender, to your Sportwagen I recommend the Thule Rapid Crossroads Aero Bar kit. It consists of the following components:
Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 47" Long - Qty 2 part # TH711220
Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401
The feet will clamp around your existing crossbar and will provide a mounting point for the Evo Crossbars, If you would prefer the bars in silver they are available as part # TH711200. I have included a video for your reference shown on a different year Sportwagen but the installation process will be the same.
I have included a link to the roof rack options that fit your Sportwagen for your reference if you would like to check out the other options.
