Question:
Hi there, Thanks in advance for your help. I have just changed my car and I kept my roof bars, I have these: Thule 969 WINGBAR 1270MM Thule 754 Foot Pack Thule rapid system kit 1710 this one is from my old car and its what I am looking to replace in order to install the roof bars on my new car And my new car, is a Fiat 500L 2014 With the current new Thule Evo Clamp Model number 710500, the number that your system gives for my car is this one: Model number 145171 Please, could you tell me what is the right equivalent for the Thule 754 Foot Pack and my Fiat 500L 2014? Best regards,

I confirmed with Thule that the only roof rack confirmed to fit your vehicle, aside from square bars, is the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 53" Long - Qty 2 # TH711400 (or # TH711420 for black) with Evo Feet # TH710501 and Fit Kit # TH145171.
Your current crossbars, the Thule 969 Wingbar 1270mm, measure 50". While your old crossbars would fit the Evo Feet # TH710501 and Fit Kit # TH145171 mentioned above, it is 3" shorter than the crossbars recommended for your vehicle and may not fit your roof correctly. You could order the feet and fit kit and test it out, then order the Thule Wingbar Evo Crossbars # TH711400 if it does not work. I attached a demonstration video for you.
