Cost Effective Roof Rack Recommendation for 2022 Subaru Forester with Raised Rails
Question:
New car Forrester being built, coming, wishing to purchase crossbars for the existing raised rails. … I currently own Thule system for 2012 Honda cross tour… I have the solid steel crossbars with the vinyl wraparound, no slots, and wondering if there is a tower/towers that can be purchased, for Sub, So I could still use the old bars… just trying to save a little bit where I can… I think the existing feet for the cross tour are 480. I see what I need for the new Forrester, question is specific to the crossbars

I have a great roof rack solution for your 2022 Subaru Forester with raised rails that's very cost effective with the Malone roof rack part number # MPG216 but since the Thule racks have changed recently there is no way to use their older style of square bars that didn't have a channel that ran down the bottom of the bar.
The Malone racks cost a fraction of the more expensive racks but they rival them in quality and they include locks so you really can't beat them.
