Helpful Expert Reply:
The most economic crossbar setup that is compatible with the Thule Hullavator # TH898 on your 2017 Lexus RX 350 with flush rails includes the following parts:
- Round 48" CrossBars for Yakima Roof Rack System (QTY 2) # Y00408
- RidgeLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Flush Side Rails - Qty # Y00145
- RoundBar SL Adapter for Yakima BaseLine, SkyLine, TimberLine, and RidgeLine Towers - Qty 4 # Y03536
- RidgeClip Fit Kit for Yakima RidgeLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06027
- (optional for extra security) Yakima Same-Key System Locks # Y07202
The Thule Hullavator will work on the Round 48-inch crossbars. With this system, the moonroof should remain closed. If you want extra security for your Hullavator, I recommend the Thule One-Key Lock System # TH450200
