Today on our 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe, we're going to be taking a look at and installing the Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack System with CoreBars. That consists of the 60" Yakima CoreBars, part number Y00422, the BaseLine Towers, part number Y00146, and the BaseClip Fit Kits for Hyundai Santa Fes, part number Y06130 and Y06133. This heavy duty, yet quiet, roof rack system maximizes the carrying capacity of your Santa Fe. The aerodynamic teardrop shape controls air flow to minimize wind noise and vibration. These steel crossbars are going to allow you to attach a wide variety of accessories to your Santa Fe's roof, such as bike racks, boat carriers, and roof mounted cargo baskets. The BaseLine towers are going to support our CoreBars and the BaseClips are going to provide a custom fit to our Santa Fe. For more security, you could pick up the Yakima Same Key System Lock Cores with part number Y07204. It's an easy installation. We'll go ahead and show you that now.
I've already got the front one installed on my Santa Fe. Let's go ahead and do the rear together. The driver and passenger side install the same way. Let's do the passenger side. First thing we'll do, let's go ahead and grab out baseline tower. Then, I'm going to grab our CoreBar adapter, and we're going to snap this in place.
We'll just take our two thumbs and push it down until we hear two clicks just like that, so it's going to be in there nice and solid. Then, let's go ahead and take off the cap here. I'm going to squeeze in on both sides and remove that. Then, we're going to pull out on this little door here. Now, let's grab our CoreBar attachment. When we put this on we want to make sure that it's facing the same way so it can easily slide on to our CoreBar, so we're going to put it on in this direction.
We're going to set it right on top, and then we're going to hold it in place, turn over our BaseLine tower, and we're going to tighten up that bolt through there. We'll grab our included Yakima tool. We're not going to tighten this down all the way just yet. Just get it started. With it loosely installed, let's go ahead and slide it on.
Then, we're going to turn the whole bar over. Now, once we've got it slid on, we'll need to refer to our instructions on the measurement between the two. We've got a little arrow on our bar here. That's going to be our center. Then, I'll just tighten it down. Now, we'll need to refer to our instructions on which one of the three tilt settings we need to be at. Then, we can just tighten it down. What we need to do is listen for three clicks with our included Yakima tool. There's two and one more. With that tightened up, let's go ahead and flip it back over, and we're going to close our little door. Then, we're going to open up our second door here. We'll grab our clip, and I'm going to slide it in place underneath, so it kind of hooks into place. Then, we can turn it back over and adjust our angle. Now, our angle gauge is going to be located right here, so once again we'll need to refer to our instructions. As you can see, we need to choose one of the three. Then, we can just tighten it down. Again, we're going to be listening for three clicks. Now, let's install our pad. It's got a little arrow located in the center. We'll need to make sure that it's facing out. We're just going to be clip it in place here. Just give it a good push, make sure it snaps in to both sides and that it can still move. Now, let's put on our end cap. Now, let's set it in place. You want to be sure and open up both doors. Then, I'll just gently set it in place. Now, we'll need to refer to our instructions once more to set the distance between our two bars. Once we've done that, we can locate the screw here. We'll take our included tool, and we're going to tighten this down. Now, as we do that you can see how it's drawing in our clip. Once it makes contact, we're going to come underneath here and tighten this down until the bottom makes contact. Then, we're going to do the same for the other side. Once we've repeated the same process on the other side, we'll make our way back over here and we're going to torque it down to the three clicks. We'll do the three clicks to this one as well. We'll close up the door and we'll repeat the same process for the other side. With everything torqued down, we can go ahead and replace our cover. With that done, we're all set. It looks great. That's going to complete our look and installation of the Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack System with CoreBars on our 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe.

As for the application, I needed more space to fit my cargo box on top of my 4Runner TRD Pro’s rack. I came up this this… Thank you!
Free delivery that showed up in 3 days!!! Can't beat it. The crossbars with the Control Towers and LandingPad 9 fit perfectly on my Honda Element. Had them installed in about 30 mins. Don't have my cargo box yet and wanted to test strength, so I had my 110lb wife standing on them with no issues (yes, the car was parked). Plan to take a long camping trip next week with a cargo box on top...wife will be in the vehicle:-)
Works perfectly. I am always impressed that Yakima continues to make parts for the "old roundbars" since they have since moved on to the superior JetStream bars.
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!!
Excellent selection of rack parts. Very useful installation videos help when choosing between products. Easy ordering process. Quick delivery.
necessary for using the widest cross bar option (78"). East to install
A great company to do business with, and lots of merchandise in stock. I orderd a roof rack for my truck on Tuesday morning and it was on the porch when I returned from work on Thursday. I will deffinitely order more from etrailer.com
One quick phone call and Gwendolyn figured out exactly what I needed for our new car to use my old Yakima rack.
The rack has been so useful since I purchased it. Staff at etrailer.com were exceptionally helpful in getting the best option for my car and answering questions. I recommend this company, for its 110% customer service, excellent prices and timely delivery.
Really easy to install & work as specified. So happy with the customer support/service at etrailer.
Arrived as part of a set of components for a roof rack and kayak carrier. I liked that etrailer had a guide to get the right components to fit my car's make and model year. This baseclip set arrived quickly, but the set for the rear of the car that arrived with them were obviously returns that had not been inspected. That set was missing parts, requiring follow-up calls to arrange for a new replacement for the incomplete set, and about a week's delay in getting the rack up on the car.
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.
Great first experience dealing with you guys! Shipped fast, and was a faster install. You gave me the right parts and it went together in a flash.
Will definitely be doing business with you all again.
I have been using Yakima racks for around 40 years and have never had any problems. However, I am amazed at the price increases over the years. Etrailer prices were by far lower than most. Overall, a very excellent purchase.
Kit worked perfectly on my 2021 Subaru Forester. The whole install took 30 minutes. Never been disappointed with etrailer.
Haven’t used them yet but they should work as expected
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.
I'm happy that this allows me to save money by using my old round bars on my new vehicle, with only the purchase of new "towers" and these adapters.
first try was missing what was needed
Etrailer helped. It was great!
E trailer has me me spoiled yet again! If only I could expect this level of service from other suppliers.
Works great to use my round bars on the Skyline towers.
Yakima Crossbars were as you would expect - steel bars coated in a soft black coating (be mindful when you are utilizing these with the top mounts as the clamp will eat through the soft coating when you tighten them down). I had issues with my yakima round bar setup as the brackets and tower system were allowing water to leak in. This is in no way reflective of what youll experience but Yakima has superb support. I spoke with them twice on my issue and out of their kindness they shipped me an entire setup to replace my existing one for free.
Product works as advertised thus far. When you buy the yakima towers, you are required to purchase these as well to fit the rounder bars (I feel sure there are other adapters for other bar shapes). These should have come with the towers in my opinion, and I resented having to shell out more $$ to purchase these "must have" adapters to mount my bars. 3 star overall rating based on function, price. Delivery and packaging was top-notch through etrailer.
I have not bought car roof racks for decades--back when there were those very useful rain gutters. So I was shocked with the high prices. But what you get today is much more carefully engineered with a complicated construction. This Yakima version even comes with a manual 3.5 mm hex driver which turns out to be a torque wrench too. You use it 16 times, torquing to its limit, in installing the two cross rails on the four towers. Years ago you installed the towers where you wanted them on the rain gutters and adjusted the cross rails by sight. No more. You must go on line to Yakima. You must get the precisely engineered dimensions for your exact vehicle. You even adjust the towers for the roof slope and any toe-in of the roof line. Pay attention to the precise instructions. The result is very solid. I wish that I had more space between the cross rails. There is room for another 6 or 8 inches given where the door openings on my 2019 Toyota Highlander are spaced. But then the rear base clips would be different and that logistics would add yet more to the price. I am confident that I can secure a 4 X 8 sheet of plywood on the cross rails. And I will find my vehicle in the mall parking lot easier with those good looking rails. While I am happy with the end product, I wish the vendors had given more explanation of the fixed dimensions of today's installations. That would have helped make my on-line shopping less frustrating. Part of the problem is that Yakima and Thule do not provide cross rails for my LE Highlander's existing tower bases. And I could not get 60 inch cross rails on any of the versions that fit my LE's bases.
