Today in our 2016 Ford Focus we're going to be test-fitting the Inno Aero Crossbar roof rack system, consisting of part numbers INXB130-138, these are the Inno Aero Crossbars 51 and 54 inches long. Part number INXS250, this is the Inno through feet for the Aero crossbars. And part number INK528, which is the fit kit for the Ford Focus. The Inno aero roof rack system is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories on your roof while freeing up space inside your vehicle. Both bars have a combined carrying capacity of 120 lbs, although you always want to double-check with your vehicle's manual to make sure it can withstand those weights. With the end caps, once you remove those, you can see it has a rubber strip in the center here.
Now that combined with the aerodynamic shape of the bar is going to cut down wind noise and drag while you drive. Also, since it has this rubber strip, you can use this with t-track accessories. Instead of having to cut the strip to length and put it around them, you simply just push it down and slide your accessories into place. Also, on each end with our feet here, they are lockable, so once you install this onto your roof it's going to be secure to your roof as well. Now that we've gone over some of the features of this 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 next we'll take our through foot and put it onto the end here. We go to the end of our bar here, and slide this piece here all the way out so that bracket is sticking out.
Then we'll take our inner bracket, which comes with our foot kit, we'll push that into place like so, and it will fit properly. We'll push it back in til it gets to that point, then we'll take this top portion of our foot, we'll stick it into this portion here, they'll fit in together like so, and then you push them into place. The next step is we'll take a measurement to get the proper spread between our feet. Measure it out . looks good. Then we'll take our included Allen tool and tighten down our bolts in the center here.
Get that nice and tight. Next we'll install our fit kit, which is going to consist of the rubber pad here and our clamp. These are numbered, so always double check and make sure that they're going to the proper foot. Looking at the bottom of our rubber foot, we can see that it matches up with our foot here. That'll just push into place. Finally, we'll install our clamp.
Remove the screw at the end here, place our clamp on, and just reinstall the screw loosely, and now we're ready to set it on the roof of our vehicle. With the bar set in place, now we'll measure for our rear crossbar, and that's going to be from the center of our doorjamb to the center of the bar. You'll find this measurement in our instructions. It actually looks pretty much on spot there. Repeat this on the other side. With our measurements done, now we can start tightening them down. We'll get them snug up against the door first, then we'll tighten them down completely. Once you hear those clicks, it's completely tightened down to your roof. Our next step is to insert this foam piece here to the end to take up the space underneath to help out with wind noise and drag. Then you would cut it to length. But for demonstration purposes, we'll have to leave that out. Our final steps are going to be to install our end caps to our bars, which just push into place like so. Then our locking end caps, which insert like so as well. Once these are installed, we can install our accessories and hit the road. There you have it for our Inno Aero Crossbar roof rack system on our 2016 Ford Focus.

Kit includes 4 clamps and 4 pads.Rack detached from my roof on the highway at about 70mph, taking my cargo container with it. Luckily, no one was behind me as it would have very easily caused an accident. Customer service was terrible and didn’t accept a return. Damaged the contents of the cargo container.Do not buy this product or from this company as they will not help.
Very happy with this this product while I had the vehicle they were on. Etrailers customer service is fantastic and I will definitely purchase from them in the future.
It was an easy install with instructions. The rack has held up well so far and looks good on the car.
Great Roof Rack! Looks very nice on my Ford Focus! Installing a rod pod soon! Quick Delivery! Outstanding product!
Received in good condition
etrailer was great to order from! Going to the website makes it easy to see what roof rack will fit your vehicle. Ordering process was a breeze and the fulfillment updates were great. Ordered on the 13th and received it on the 16th so the FREE shipping was super fast. New installs of anything can always be challenging but once I read the the instructions it all went pretty smooth. Installing this Inno Roof Rack onto our 2021 Tacoma TRD Sport was pretty simple and took less than an hours from start to finish. Now we are ready to load up out Thule cargo carrier when we hit the road.
I am writing this review in the context of an owner of an old Yakima roof rack system from many vehicles before the 2021 Hyundai Tucson on which I just mounted four INNO separate sets of components to carry two bikes on top of the Tucson. Note that you need at least three sets of components to have a "base rack" system, including the hooks, in this case the INNO INK680, the INNO INSUT Feet and the INNO INB137 set of crossbars. The feet are rubber coated metal so that they will not mar the paint where they clamp to the edge of the roof just above the doors. The rubber pads are also substantial to provide a slip-proof and paint protecting bottom for the INSUT feet. Read through all the directions for all the components before beginning installation, perhaps even "rehearsing" all the steps before actual installation with tightening everything. The instructions could be clearer, but with practice walking through all the steps they make sense. Once installed, I could grab any part of the completed system and pull upwards, sideways, forwards, and backwards without any play or slack in any of the components. In fact, it was easy to rock the whole car side to side without budging the INNO components at all. Compared to the old Yakima system, the INNO is just as sturdy and substantial if not more so. Just to replace the Yakima "feet" to use my old round Yakima crossbars would have cost more than the total of the three INNO components needed to get the base system. Even better, the INNO system came with included locks to lock the system to the vehicle. Many years ago, the Yakima four lock cylinders were $[XX] extra - probably much more now. So, I think the INNO is at least as sturdy and capable for much less money.
Feels premium and was pretty straight forward to install. I think it looks really good on the 2019 Honda Accord Sport. I plan to pair it with the Inno Wedge 660 cargo box. So far, it seems really well made and has a rubberized texture throughout. I installed it by myself in about 30 minutes without the instructions. It also shipped in only 2 days.
I've been a happy etrailer customer for years. Sales staff helped me pick out the right roof rack setup for my new 2023 Escape that worked with my low-profile rails. 3 separate boxes of pieces but they all came together perfectly. Very happy with my purchase and etrailer customer support! Rack is solid, low wind noise and will work with the accessories I need, kayak carrier and cargo basket.
We bought this along with the INTR - Inno Feet for Square Crossbars. We used this to mount Thule crossbars and a Thule Adventurer cargo box on a 2001 Subaru Forester. Everything fit perfectly. The Inno mounts were completely compatible with the Thule crossbars. The fast and accurate shipping helped avert a crisis before a cross country trip.
THEY DID IT AGAIN! I was looking for roof racks for our 2012 Honda Crosstour. OEM was not available. I called Etrailer and spoke to Anna and she listened to make sure we got just what we needed.Today I'm going to install and hope they fit our needs. I'm really impressed with Etrailer and there customer service! They have taken care of me many times with several different vehicles! Thank you
I purchased the Inno Rack system and Rhino Rack 581 saddles for my 2007 Mercury Montego. The instructions were easy to follow, and the rack is rock solid. It makes loading and unloading my kayak a breeze. I previously used roof pads and that was ridiculous compared to what this rack does for me now. I am amazed with how quiet with and without the kayak attached is - I don’t hear anything except the very slightest amount of wind with the windows open on the highway. I always have put a one turn twist in the bow and stern straps, but for the rest they’re all straight. I added an extra strap on the rear crossbar that goes behind the rear combing of my cockpit for extra security- but that’s just me. I’ve included a photo to show my setup. Thank you so much Mark S, Becky B, Carol C, and George J. etrailer rocks.
etrailer gave me fast shipping and a great price. Inno quality is great. I’ve had this on for several months and use it to transport bikes. I use the cheap bike racks on [online] but they work.
Works great wouldnt have bought anything else and protects paint from getn scratched since i dont roof rails
I have a 2022 Lexus GX460 Premium. Fairly simple installation and a almost seem less transition from the fit kit to the cross bar system. Can be done by one person, but I would suggest a two-person system to expedite the process.
Everything is good so far...the Inno rack system appears to made of good quality, fit and finish...it took about 2-hrs to get everything built, lined up, adjusted, tightened, loosened, repositioned, then retightened down...but I’m a bit of a perfectionist with things like this...plus I was checking my Saris cargo bin and various attachments, make sure that they’d all, which they do! And very well I might add...I just need to buy some new square carriage bolts for the channel now, along with new knobs...hoping that etrailer will get back to me with info soon...I will likely get a new wind deflector too...yesterday I did a test drive, was very pleased with the minimal whistling that occurred, and that was primarily between 30-40 mph and it was much quieter than my old Saris Roof Rack....after 40 mph the whistling got much quieter, very faint high highway speeds
Great system. Got it installed the night before a road trip, and once you get the hang of if, assembly is easy and intuitive. This system is rock solid and well done.
Things I wish I knew that would have helped in my decision:
1) After you install the footbeds, the rails and tower easily remove as one unit in the future, and they include little covers to put over the feet. No more long debates about wind noise. If you find them modify or don’t like the look, take it off in five minutes. Even the Allen wrench is stored neatly in the rack.
2) I had been a long time Yakima user, so that’s where I started with my GX rack. Having searched far and wide for landing pads, I was all set. Step one of the Yakima system: remove factory rails. Having just spent good money on this truck, I’m not taking off factory rails and adding silicone around the holes to create new mounting points. Innos fits nicely to the factory rails.
I was using Yakima Bowdown Kayak racks on my OE roof racks. The shape of the OE cross rails just didn't work well with the racks, and they were always loose. I installed the Inno square tube racks from Etrailer, and all is right in my world. Easy installation (thanks for the detailed instructions!) and a solid feel! No whistling, either! Quick shipment, best price anywhere! Thanks, Etrailer!

There are a lot of factors involved when installing and using a roof rack. For the 2018 Ford Focus Sedan the roof rack capacity is 120 pounds although you would want to also check that the manual says for the vehicle. Before tightening anything down you will want to look at the instructions to find the proper spread between the bars and also the feet. Once that is down you will take the included Allen tool and tighten down the bolt. Next you will install the fit kit which will have you start with the foot pad. The foot pad will line up with the holes at the bottom of the foot. These will push into place and are numbered so that the right pad lines up with the right foot. To install the clamp you will remove the screw from the outside and loosely tighten it up to hold the clamp into place. The next step is to measure from the center of the doorjamb you will get the measurement to the center of the bar. You will find this in your instructions. Repeat on the other side. Then you will take the tightening tool and snug it up against the door. You will do this on the passenger side as well. Then you will go back and forth from drivers to passenger side giving about five or six turns each time until its completely tightened down. When it makes the clicking sound you will know its completely tied down. You do not want to over tighten it.
