Speaker 1: Today on our 2013 Honda Accord, we're gonna be test fitting the Yakima RoundBar roof rack system, consisting of part numbers Y00409. These are the round 50-inch crossbars for the Yakima roof rack systems. Part number Y00146, theses are the baseline towers for the Yakima crossbars. Part number Y03536, this is the RoundBar SL adapter for the Yakima baseline, Skyline, Timberline and Ridgeline towers. Part number Y06148 and Y006150, and these are the base clip fit kits that you're gonna need for your vehicle.The Yakima RoundBar roof rack system is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories on your rook or freeing up space inside your vehicle. These bars are tough and durable, and together have a combined carrying capacity of 220 pounds, but you always wanna check with your vehicle's manual to make sure you roof can withstand those weights.They're very easy to install.
They simple clamp around your vehicles doorframe. They come with these end caps here that just snap into place and also have a knock out for Yakima same-key lock system, which when installed, can secure not only your roof rack to your vehicle, but you can also make it key to like with whatever accessories you're installing on top of it.Now that we've gone over some of the features of the roof rack system, let's go ahead and show you how it installs. We already have our rear bar partially assembled on our table and we'll go through the rest of the steps. We'll start by installing our RoundBar adapter, starting with this plastic piece here that fits to the top portion of our tower. Just snaps into place.
We'll take our round bar adapter, which has this screw end on the bottom of it, line it up with that portion there, and we'll come to the end of this, pulling out this gray tab, flipping it upside down, going to the screw, which by loosening up that gray tab we can see now. Let's loosely install it at the moment. Then, we'll slide it on to the other end of our bar.We'll also install the pad portion of our fit kit. It just pushes in at the bottom of our tower until you hear a little bit of a click. Also, you wanna check your fit guide to make sure that this is in the proper notch.
If not, you loosen up the screw there and push it into its proper place. You can see that it moves our pad here. Once it's in its proper place, turn it to the side like that.Now, we're gonna measure it from tower to tower on the inside. Again, this measurement's gonna be in your instructions. Once you got that measurement down, we'll come back to that screw in the bottom here with our adapter piece and tighten it down the rest of the way.
You're gonna hear audible clicks once it's tightened down from our tool here. Like that. There you know it's tightened down enough and you're not gonna over-tighten it.Next, we'll put on our end caps here to hold everything in place. Do this on both sides.Now, we're ready to install it on the rear portion of our vehicle. We'll open up both doors to get ready to receive the rear cross bar. Set the bar in place. I want you to notice that I haven't put the clips in yet. I'm gonna do that in a second. I kind of saved that for the last thing that I do because I don't want the clips to possibly make contact with the roof of the vehicle and possibly scratch it. Make sure they're set evenly on both sides. Next, I'm gonna get the crossbar spread measurement. That's gonna be from center of the bar to center of the front bar. You'll find this measurement in your instructions as well.Next, I'll open up the little door here and our plate will slide to the inside like so. Then, we'll turn this screw. That's gonna lower our clamp onto our vehicle, as you can see there. We'll repeat this for the other side. Next, we'll tighten it down with the center screw here. Again, until you hear those two or three audible clicks. There we go. Then we can close that up. Then we'll put our end caps on. These two portions here fit into these hook portions there. Then they just snap into place. Now, we're ready to load up our gear and hit the road.There you have it for the Yakima RoundBar roof rack system on our 2013 Honda Accord.

Extremely quiet, aerodynamic crossbars attach to Yakima towers to create a stylish roof rack for your vehicle. Rubber strips in T-slots push down to load carriers or accessories - no need to trim. Full-length aluminum bars maximize carrying capacity.Excellent solution for my 2023 Chevy Silverado. In the past, I have had rails installed on the roof of my pickup trucks, but I find the BaseLine towers to be a better solution, since they don't permanently change the truck. Plus, they are much more solid than SkyLine system on the rails.
Love my Yakima roof rack!! It exceeds my expectations.great product. Also thank etrailer for the tec support! great staff always there to help thanks again!!
Follow the instructions, and you can't go wrong on the self installation
Not a bad setup. I dont believe you need the 60" bars i received as they hang over the edge of your Hyundai. You need to watch your head getting in and out of your vehicle. The Jetstream crossbars are very loud at speeds over 65 mph. Im probably used to it by now, but it is definitely noticeable. Much louder than an older Rhino Rack of similar dimensions i had. Install was simple and took about 30 minutes, just take your time and measure correctly like all roof racks.
Really easy to install & work as specified. So happy with the customer support/service at etrailer.
Your notice of schemes was a lot better than the yakima site provided. They did not suggest the scheme you did.
But when the products arrived, the instructions were by yakima. Generally worked as instructed except the tower to tower transverse mounting dimensions needed to be tweaked for a perfect fit.
product was just what I needed The folks at etrailer were extremely helpufl!!
Easy to install. It probably took 45min. I bought them for my 2024 Expedition to haul a canoe. I have not done that yet but I expect no issues.
Ackage came 2 days early the install was somewhat easy (did it by myself)
Did not get to mount anything to it but seems really sturdy. One thing I can say is mark out your mounting points with provided stickers then put up and make adjustments to the roof rack.
I have a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT which has the non-functional roof side bars. Etrailer.com helped me figure this out and gave me several options that would work. As I already have Yakima bike racks - I wanted to stick with the brand. The price on etrailer.com was the same as Yakima but had free shipping and no tax - awesome. Product arrived quickly!
I went with the Yakima 60" Jetstream cross bars, baseline towers, and the appropriate pads and clips.
The Yakima product came with thorough and easy to understand instructions. I was able to get the track installed and working in about an hour - and that was taking it slow and double checking everything. I was very pleased with the fit and finish.
After a test run, there was no wind noise or issue with the rack. Looking forward to taking a road trip next month with it!
Product exactly as expected. Quality bars. Using on a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. Looks great installed. Little to no wind noise. And, as usual, top notch service by the etrailer crew! Have purchased several items from etrailer over the past 10 years and have always been impressed by how timely they are and how responsive and helpful they have been regarding product questions. They are absolutely the first merchant I go to when shopping on line!
The Yakima rack system for my 2015 Ford Fusion is an awesome product! I hadn't needed to buy aftermarket racks in many years. These are a super solid, beefy, and very well made product. I am very impressed with the quality and fit. Yakima has obviously put lots of design time into them. And etrailer does an outstanding job of making sure you get the right product for your specific need.
I chose this rack specifically because of the spread between the bars - 32" - and for the higher weight limit, as I'm carrying a fishing kayak.
Solid build quality and easy installation on my '21 Mazda CX-5.
So far so good. Purchased these towers to use on a 2022 GMC Canyon with HD bars that I already had, primarily to carry my canoe. Yakima's fitting instructions worked perfectly and the whole system seems really solid.
Love it! We've made several long trips with full luggage loads.
Well packaged and on time
Easy to order and quick to ship. Took a bit of time to get these installed correctly so they fit just right.
1 year later and still love my Yakima JetStream system. I've mostly used them to transport my kayak however I've also been able to transport some big box store items as well. They are very versatile. There is a t-track option as well as wrap around attachments. I've use ladder attachments, eyebolts, and Thule Hullavator in t-track. I've used Malone MegaWing and Yakima Skybox as wrap around attachment. What I really like about the t-track system is that you do not need to cut out the rubber track insert. You simply slide over the rubber, which allows you to adjust your system, on the fly, to load what you need to carry.
Excellent product. These bars are very quiet and look great on our truck. Assembly and installation was straightforward. We've used these bars to secure our large Yakima car top carrier and have traveled on several trips to the mountains and cabin with no issues. I suggest ordering an extra set of end caps as we've lost one in the car wash. However, have had no problems with the bars when going through the car wash.
As always, I GREATLY appreciate the superior product support that etrailer.com provides. They have the best product content on the web, hands down.
Roof rack parts were ordered correctly and shipped quickly.
These Yakima crossbars are a part of the Yakima towers I bought to install on my Jeep Cherokee to hold a pair of Kayaks. They fit great as advertised. In fact I got these discounted as an open box. I would have never known, they look brand new. Thank you etrailer for your great advice, customer service and quick shipping process.
Great product fast shipping
Great! Easy to install!
The bars are sturdy, aerodynamic and super strong. I bought this to fit a Yakima Skybox 16 and these worked great. The measurement ticks on the bottom assist with getting the box centered and have a great gasket system that you fit yourself. These mounted pretty quick even in 20 degree weather.
etrailer sold this as a set based on my car and every piece was great and a perfect fit. Communication and tracking info was great and they delivered it a day before promised.
Great service and great staff. They will have all the technical information you need.
