Video Transcript for Rhino Rack Roof Rack Review - 2017 Volkswagen Golf
Speaker 1: Today on my 2017 Volkswagen Golf, we're going to be test fitting the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero roof rack system. This is going to consist of part number RRVA137B-2, those are the bars here. These also come in silver as part number RRVA126S-2. We'll also be using part number RRRLKDA, these are the 2500 series legs for the Vortex Aero crossbars. And finally, part number DK390, and this is the fit kit that clamps around your existing door frame.This is a great roof rack system that will help you carry wide variety of accessories on your roof while freeing up space inside your Golf. Such as bike racks, cargo baskets, or smaller cargo boxes.
It has a nice elliptical shape which is aerodynamic and that, coupled with the Vortex Aero strip, up at the top, will help cut down the wind noise and drag while you drive. The end caps do come with locks included so once you install this it's going to be secure to your roof and also you can remove these Vortex Aero strips up at the top and you can utilize T-track accessories with this as well.So now that we have the front one installed, let's go ahead and show you how the rear one installs. We already have it partially assembled on our table here and the installation process is fairly easy. You're going to see everything that comes with the kit here. We have the bar, the legs, the tightening tool, and of course the fit kit.So our first step, we're going to flip our bar upside down and this is going to make it a little easier to show you how to do this.
We'll start with our 2500 series leg and this bracket up at the top is going to slide in to the slot at the bottom. There we go. And in the instructions you're going to find a measurement from this point to this point on our tower here and normally you would also have a strip to cut to length and put in place so you don't have to worry about that, but for demonstration purposes we're going to go ahead and measure it out. We'll use our trusty flat tape here. And then we'll take our included tool and tighten down the bolt in the center here.
Then we can take our end cap, put that in place, take our little key tool here and move it to the locked position.Next we can start installing our fit kit. Now when it comes to these, you want to make sure that you're putting these in the right place. These are numbered so you know which one is which and with the pads here, it has an arrow so you want to pay attention to where that's facing as well. So this just pushes into place at the base here and we unscrew the edge, we insert it just loosely, then this is ready to be set on our actual roof.So next make sure that the car is unlocked and we'll open up our two rear doors here. Then we'll send our bar on top of the roof very carefully because we don't want to scratch it or anything like that, and then again looking at the measurements and the instructions, you're going to get from center to center a measurement to go by.
Want to make sure it's even on both sides. And it's okay if there is a gap between the pad and the edge here.Next we'll go back to our tightening tool and we'll first get it loosely tightened up against the doorframe, then we'll go back and forth giving it about four or five turns each time until it's nice and tight. And look at our tool here, you'll see that it's curved. As you tighten it down it's going to straighten out and that's when you know it's torqued down to its proper specification. And once those are tightened down our final step is to put our end caps in place and lock them down.All right and now we're ready to load up our gear and hit the road. But there's a couple of measurements I want to give you real quick before we're done. And this is going to give you an idea of how far this sticks above your naked roof. Measuring from the center of the roof to the bottom of the bar is going to be about 3-7/8 of an inch, to the top from the center that's going to be about 5-1/4. So that's more than enough space in between the roof rack and the sunroof here where you can have those accessories that wrap around your bars as opposed to use the T-track accessory, and that's not going to damage it. Also, there's plenty of space to still utilize your actual sunroof here. Both these bars have a combined carrying capacity of 165 pounds but you always want to double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure your roof can take those weights.And there you have it for the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero roof rack system on our 2017 Volkswagen Golf.

Good price, quick shipment, and quality roof rack!
by: Brandon04/19/2019
Nice high quality product! Fit perfectly on my roof, and was very easy to assemble. It looks good and is very sturdy!

Volkswagen Golf
Installation on Golf TDI was tedious as the angles of the retaining clamps that go under the door didn't look very aligned with the car's curves at first. Wasn't sure if I ha the correct parts!
Advice: tighten very slowly and monitor the clamp attachments.
Pros: Strong as a tank. No noticeable loss of mileage with aero crossbars.
Cons (as for all racks): Road noise / whistling increasing intensity once above 30mph.

I recently purchased a Rhino-rack with Aero Crossbars and Kayak carrier. Customer Service was excellent. They suggested the Rhino-rack which was on sales and then suggested cheaper attachments for the kayak. My name on the order was misspelled and I never received a order confirmation but one call to Customer Svc fixed the order. I have not used the rack yet but I am impressed with the quality.

from what i can tell so far all of the parts fit rather well. I only wish that Rhino make use of the dimple that Volkswagen uses to locate where the roof rack should be. On my golf I had to move the towers about an inch behind the dimple in order for the locking brackets to sit correctly.

Ease of order, receipt, installation and excellent customer service is what I received in this order.
Thank you, e-trailer!

Takes a little while to assemble the rack bars.
The stickers are great I can mark the positions after measuring the distance between the bars.
One of the screws is underneath the bar; it is hard to reach to tighten the bars.
Finally, I got the roof rack installed and it looks good.

Pretty nice rack system. Held up to my 90lb canoe no problem. However a piece did fly off on the highway and the "locking" bar end cap can pull off super easy.
The directions were ok. There is some stuff you have to kind of figure out for yourself, mainly the roof trim. I plan to leave the rack on so I drilled theough the trim

Just followed all the etrailer website prompts for my naked roof Toyota Matrix and it set me up with the three packages needed- rails legs and fitkit. Installed easily enough. I like the little arrow stickers hidden in the door jams for fast re-install later. Held two 10’ kayaks on a 2 hr journey with ease.
by: Mike R04/29/2023
This is a perfect fit for our 2015 Prius V with "naked" roof. Instructions were clear and accurate, and the bars are solid and able to support our canoe and kayak easily. We added the air deflector, as there was a bit of wind noise, but now there is none. Great product at much lower price than the big names.
by: DrummerDoug5506/17/2023
Absolutely love the Rhino Rack. Easy to install (watch the [online] video). Looks GREAT. Hauls my kayaks no problem. Very well made and I highly recommend this product.
by: Stephen05/04/2023
The Rhino 2500 series is well built. The etrailer customer service person Trevor W. was great. He was so helpful in getting the right components for my Rhino 2500 roof rack to mount to my 2010 Silverado. Thanks for the help Trevor.
by: 04/26/2023
This was the kit for my 2020 equinox. The spacing of the feet on the vortex aero bars was incorrect I had to use the Euro sizes. Went back and forth with customer service trying to get confirmation that was the right size but it never was confirmed. Everything is installed now and sturdy.
by: Rich04/13/2023
Seemed to work well with my 2012 Kia Soul. I have only had it on my car for a day at writing this so I can't really give it five stars. I would bump it up to five stars once its been on for a few months. Easy to install, and after doing a bit of research Etrailer.com Had the best deal, and support for installation.
by: Robert S05/14/2024
Once installed the product is very sturdy and looks great. But the directions are hard to follow because of the separate components and would have been really tough without the video which was great. I have one problem, how can I eliminate the annoying wind sound when driving when nothing on the rack. I saw a video where wrapping a line around the crossbar can help. It has helped a lot but not completely. Is there another secret for this?
by: GMT09/24/2022
Installed this and 65" Vortex Areo crossbars on a 2015 RAM 5500 chassis cab/crew cab. It is listed to fit 1500 to 3500 RAM's and neither Rhino-Rack or etrailer would confirm it would fit the 5500. My research suggested there was not much, if any difference, between the 3500 and 5500 crew cab, so ordered it any way. Installation was relatively easy, fit seemed to be good and have made multiple 200-300 mile trips with a 75lb kayak. Good price, great customer service and fast delivery through etrailer.
by: Joyce 10/09/2022
The roof rack is great, just pretty pricy, by me standards.
My only problem with the whole experience was that the roof rack comes in there separate packages. In my order, one package was omitted, which created some confusion. I had to go back to the company and request that the 3rd package be sent.
Otherwise I'm happy with the purchase.
I responded to a previous request fro feedback, so I'm not sure why I'm being asked again, but . . .

Customer support was great. After reading the instructions and watching the video on how to install the Rhino Rack installation went well. The ski rack has one draw back, if you leave car out over night with skis locked in the ski rack, every thing can be easily stolen. All you need is an Allen wrench to remove the ski rack with the skis. The roof rack has locking covers the prevent theft of the roof rack. The ski rack can be easily removed from the roof rack.
by: Robert10/13/2021
Fairly easy installation. Read the instructions thoroughly before hand and get familiar with the parts. Take care when installing mounting studs onto car itself so as not to strip or cross thread them. Once installed they look great.

See what our Experts say about this Rhino Rack Roof Rack
- Recommended Roof Rack for a 2015 Volkswagen Golf 5 DoorI do have a roof rack that will fit your 2015 Volkswagen Golf 5 door, but the SportsRack Roof Rack # SR1010 that you referenced will not fit on your Volkswagen. Rhino Rack has a roof rack that uses the aero crossbars unlike the SportsRack roof rack. This is a much quieter system. This Rhino Rack Roof Rack System includes the Square Crossbars # RRVA126B-2, 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and the Roof Rack Legs # DK390. As long as your Volkswagen Golf does not have existing rails or crossbars...
view full answer... - Rhino Rack Roof Rack For 2017 VW Golf GTIYes, you are correct. The 2017 VW GTI is considered a Golf. That said, you will want the following for your naked roof: Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 49" Long # RRVA126B-2 Legs # RRRLKVA Fit Kit # DK390
view full answer... - Which Rhino Rack Fit Kit Fits 2017 Volkswagen GolfSo Rhino Rack has a ROC25 roof rack that does fit your 2017 Volkswagen Golf with the part # RR23QR that does use the fit kit part # DK390 that you referenced. If you are sure you have the correct length bar rack this fit kit would allow it to fit your Golf.
view full answer... - Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack Recommendation for 2015 Volkswagen GolfIf you are wanting to hopefully use parts of the roof rack you'd install on your 2015 Volkswagen Golf on a future vehicle the best option is the Rhino Rack that uses the Vortex bars part # RRVA126B-2, feet # RRRLKVA, and fit kit part # DK390. This style of roof rack fits many vehicles and there's a very good chance that by swapping fit kits you could use this on a different vehicle as well. There isn't a way to adapt the RS 2500 style rack to future vehicles as they do not offer fit kits...
view full answer... - Roof Rack and Bike Carrier Recommendation for 2015 Volkswagen GolfFor your 2015 Volkswagen Golf the Rhino Rack roof rack that consists of part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK390 would be a great fit at a great price. For a bike rack then the Thule ProRide part # TH598004 is a great option that allows you to keep the front wheel on the bike. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Aero Bar Roof Rack for 2019 Volkswagen Golf 5-Door with Bare RoofFor your 2019 VW Golf we do have several options in an aero-style roof rack which include products from Rhino-Rack and Yakima. All appear on the linked page. My top recommendation is the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack. The Vortex system is made of parts # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK390. You can see it installed on a Golf by clicking on the linked video. The Vortex rack features sleek 49-inch black crossbars that have much more of an OEM appearance than many other aftermarket rack...
