Today on our 2016 Honda CRV, we're going to be testing the Yakima round bar roof rack system, consisting of part numbers Y00409, these are the round 58 inch cross bars, part number Y00146, these are the baseline tower for the Yakima cross bars, and part number Y03536, which is the round bar SL adapter kit for the Yakima baseline towers, and part numbers Y06148 and Y06152, which are the base clip fit kits for the Honda CRV. The Yakima round bar roof rack system is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories on your roof while freeing up space inside your vehicle for you and your family. The two bars have a combined carrying capacity of 165 pounds although you always want to double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure your roof can withstand that weight. Both of the end caps do come with knock outs which you can replace with the Yakima same key system so you can actually utilize this with your Yakima accessories and make everything key alike. 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 have our rear bar partially assembled on our table here, and our next step is to install our base tower to the other end of our bar. So we'll take our baseline tower, take this plastic adapter piece, and that gets pushed on the top here till you hear a couple clicks. Then we'll take our round bar adapter, place that, line up with the screw, then we'll come around to the front of the baseline tower, pull this portion out so we can see the screw that we need to tighten down with our included tool.
Now as we tighten this down, we just want to loosely tighten it up, because we want to still be able to move it along our bar to get our spread between our towers accurate. Slide it on, and we'll put our end cap on here so it doesn't slide back off. And then we'll get our proper spread between our towers. You can find this measurement in your instructions. Once you have it where it needs to be, we'll tighten it down the rest of the way. Now the nice thing about this tool, once you tighten this down, you'll actually hear audible clicks to let you know that you've tightened it to its proper specification and this is also so you don't over tighten it as well. Another thing I'd like to take note, you see these three notches here and this knob here.
Now if we we're to loosen that up, if I was to move this, you can see that the foot moved a little bit. So with this particular vehicle, we want it set towards the back of the car, as you can see here. Next we'll take our foot pad here from our fit kit and we'll push that into place as well. At this point, you can also put your clamps into place, but I like to wait for that after I set this on the vehicle and get the spacing set up so I don't possibly scratch up or damage the vehicle with the clamps still in place. We'll set our bars into place. First we're going to make sure that they're even on both sides, but then we're going to measure from center of the bar to center of the bar for our crossbar spread and this measurement you will find in your instructions.
Now we'll open up our doors, insert our clamps, and start to tighten them down. So we'll take our clamps, you can see this open portion here, that'll hold in like so and you can see this kind of hovering above our door edge here. To lower that down, we'll go to this screw, tighten it down, that'll lower it into place. Then we'll come to the center here. And right now, we'll just snug it up against the door and we'll repeat this process for our driver side.
You can close that up now and our final step is to add our end caps, which you can see these two portions here, these two hooks go into these two areas on our end cap. We'll put those into place, and then we'll load up our gear and hit the road. And there you have it for the Yakima round bar roof rack system on our 2016 Honda CRV.

Heavy-duty crossbars mount to Yakima towers to create an aftermarket roof rack. Top and bottom channels let you add channel-mount accessories. Tie-down points in endcaps let you easily secure cargo.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.
etrailer was a great place to order, quick and easy. Yakima products however are over priced and overly complicated.
Follow the instructions, and you can't go wrong on the self installation
Great product, as are all Yakima products,in my opinion. These are on a Yakima system installed on my Diamond Back tonneau cover. Very pleased with them
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.
We purchased the rack 5 weeks in advance of our up and coming trip. (Rack is amazing FYI). However, The website states free shipping over a certain amount. Weeks went by with notifications nothing was sent and the order kept being pushed back.
Once I called I was told those who chose to purchase shipping vs opting for the free shipping got their orders firsts; everyone else fell to the bottom. After waiting a month for “free shipping” I opted to have paid shipping and I received the rack within days.
While this company has many products I could use, I refuse to use them again because what is advertised is NOT what they ethically hold themselves accountable too.
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!!
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.
These adapters were easy to install and made my system fit together nicely.
Your service is nothing short of excellent! Thank you
I had a difficult time identifying whether these were the correct adapters for the rack towers that I was purchasing to fit my tracks but that has more to do with yakima doing everything a-la-cart instead of having kits that include everything you need if I hadn't already had the HD bars on my other rack and wanted to be able to transfer them to this rack I probably wouldn't have went to this expense because I think they are overpriced.AS far as etrailer is concerned I always receive great service and products and they are always well packaged and never damaged by poor delivery care and always fast delivery speed.
While putting the roof racks together, one needs to pay close attention to the detailed instructions; but, so far, the equipment is working well with a good fit on my Toyota highlander—I’ve traveled some 1000 miles so far.
Yakima OverHaul HD is built tough, sturdy, light but heave duty, well designed, easy to install and remove by leaving the locking base on the track. The height can be adjusted easily to a desired height to fit just right. The "bonus" is a beer bottle opener on each rail :)
Customer service at etrailer is excellent! Always responsive, immediately reply to help with any questions. Tayler K. was my sales representative, she's been super!
Great product and even better was the service with etrailer! These guys make it happen and delivery was super fast. Thanks for a fantastic experience, will be a return customer.
Yakima HD bars 60”
2018 Ford Expedition
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.
Well packaged and on time
The Yakima products are doing great. Just got home yesterday from a 18 day trip using them in Michigan's upper peninsula. Love them. Great products. Thanks again.

Owned several surfboard racks in 45 years and these are by far the best.
Great tie downs also.
