Specs:
Pair these feet with 2 Inno square crossbars to create an aftermarket roof rack for your vehicle with factory raised side rails. The feet install with no tools, and include locking covers to secure the system to your roof.
To install a foot, remove the cover on the end of the crossbar and slide foot over the bar. Tighten the foot onto the bar with the cam-action handle.
The Inno feet install easily with no tools required. Just wrap the stainless steel straps around your raised side rails and hook them into the bottoms of the feet. Then use the cam-action handles to tighten the straps on your rails. The rubber-coated straps and pads on the bottoms of the feet grip your vehicle's rails while also helping to prevent scuffs and scratches.
A locking cover on each foot secures the system to your raised side rails. Simply slide the cover into the guide holes on the foot, then use one of the included keys to lock the cover.

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Inno roof rack system with the Inno square crossbars that are 50 inches long, the Inno feet for square crossbars, right here on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. Now for a comparison between these square bars and other roof racks design for your 4Runner is if you want more weight capacity, you would go with the square crossbars because they're made of steel, they have more capacity, but they could be slightly noisier compared to an aero crossbar. So that's something worth considering. Also, you might even want the longer crossbars, since if you want more overhang, this doesn't provide more overhang. You could just easily step up the size, no issues at all.
So it is up to you and your adventure. Some kayak carriers and some accessories require more overhang. So check those out before you choose your roof rack. So we have a bunch of different roof rack options right here at etrailer. That's because for your 4Runner, if you're going out on an adventure, you might want a little bit extra space for either your cargo, your roof rack accessories, like your bike racks, your roof boxes, or even your kayak carriers.
That's where this comes in. So this is an aftermarket roof rack. You add this onto your raised side rails on your 4Runner, and that allows you to carry those extra things on your roof. So let's take a look at this specific system, just to see if it's the right fit for you, your vehicle, your adventure, especially compared to the other roof rack options we have. So these are the square bars and they're made of steel.
So they have that nice weight capacity. Inno also has their own unique design. Sometimes, they don't look as good on vehicles, but on our 4Runner, I think their design works out pretty well. It matches just the sporty ruggedness of the 4Runner. So these are the 50-inch long crossbars in black.
So let's take a look at different measurements, just to see how it fits on your roof. So first we'll take a look at overhang. So technically, you have an overhang of two and a half inches. That's measuring from this end of the tower to your endcap. But because of the way our tower is built, where it sticks further out, I would like to say there's actually zero overhang with this crossbar length. Now let's talk about roof height and roof clearance. So roof clearance is going to be from the highest point of the roof to the bottom of our crossbar. So right here, it measures at about three inches of roof clearance. So if you do have clamps that go around your crossbars, that's how much space you have for those clamps. Also, if you carrying around skis and they do have extra thick bindings, you might wanna be concerned about roof clearance. So let's take a measurement that will help out with that too, and that's height. So you have it where it's four inches above your roof. So that's where your accessories are going to be sitting on. Add that to your clearance and that's how much space you have to work with. So your Toyota 4Runner could possibly also come with factory crossbars. These actually had those factory crossbars, but I took them off and replaced them with these roof rack bars because of the limited clearance. The factory bars fit right inside your rails and the space between the bars and your roof is so small that most of our clamps here at etrailer did not fit around them. So if you already have factory crossbars, you're wondering why you might want an aftermarket roof rack, that is the reason. You get more versatility, more clearance, and can carry around more things. Now speaking of clamps, you will have to make sure that your accessories fit around these bars. It's really cool that they have a 220-pound weight capacity. It's even more than your aero bars. But the thing with your modern aero bars is that they're designed to reduce wind noise and wind drag. And the Inno bars have a T-track channel, these do not. So just make sure that whatever accessory you have, if it does have a clamp, it is designed to fit around your square crossbars. We also have an integrated lock. So you do get these keys, and these keys are key to the towers that come with your kit. So one key to access all four locks. So these go right in there, twist them, and then you can take off the endcap. And when you wanna secure them, you just pop them right back in, because once that is locked in place, that endcap prevents you from boosting the tower. Another thing about our tower is we have this pad, and that goes around your raised rail. So this actually has a little bit more cushion compared to our other towers that I've seen. And it's nice to see how well that fitting is around your rail, as well as your options when it comes to what notch you put that strap in, just to get the best fit for you. Now let's talk about the tower. So your 4Runner has these raised side rails. I really like raised side rails because it gives you a little bit of versatility when it comes to any of your roof racks. You can move them back and forth just to get the best crossbar spread for your accessory. Now these towers are designed to go around your raised side rails. They have a strap that fits around those rails, and then they have a lever that tightens down. So let's take a look at that install process. So the install process is very simple, especially since these go right on to your raised rails. So this is pretty much all I need to install my crossbars. I already installed the rear ones so that we install the front ones together. So you have your crossbar, you have your towers, you have your endcaps for your towers, and you have your endcaps for your crossbars themselves. Some other tools that I use are the Moky doorstep, just to give myself some extra height and traction up on to our roof, and a tape measure so you can make sure that everything is aligned and has a good enough overhang. So let's start installing this crossbar. So get your tower, release the rubber strip for the notch that it is in. You may need to loosen that strap if needed, then you go get your crossbar. So we're just gonna bring this in and then feed this through. You may need to push down in order to get enough. So once you have your towers on your crossbars, you'll then make sure again that the straps are released. And now it's time to put them on our roof. While this is possible to do on your own, I highly recommend having your friend help you out, and just grab one end as you put it on your 4Runner. So this is Andy here. He's just gonna grab that tower and help align it with our raised rails. You may need to push the crossbar out a little bit. There we go. That will help both of us get onto the raised rails. Now we have two options when it comes to placing our straps 'cause you do go around the rail and then up into the tower. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna place it on the top notch, where it says standard or Normal. And before you fully tighten down your towers, you're gonna wanna measure for overhang. So that's gonna measure from your tower to the end of your crossbars, measure on the other side, and try to get them to match up as much as you can. That's how you know your crossbar is evenly distributed on your towers. But once you've done that, go ahead and tighten this all the way down. I recommend going partway on this side and on that side, and then tighten both down. That way, you don't skew it to one side or the other. Once you have this fully tightened down, just drop that lever so it's out of the way, and then start putting your endcaps on. So you're gonna have an endcap for both the crossbar. That pops right on, there's just a rubber endcap. Then you have this endcap for your tower that fits right into your tower and you have these keys to secure it. So do the exact same process on all four towers, so both of your crossbar pairs, and once you confirm that everything is locked down and tightened down, that's it for the install process. So my personal thoughts about this roof rack system is I like the weight capacity. I really like this design. I think it looks really rugged and sporty. I personally would use this with longer crossbars. Since you do not have T-track channels on top, if I really wanna maximize that 220-pound capacity, I would like longer bar space. So that's definitely something worth considering. If you're not into the square bar, you don't need that much weight capacity, definitely check out the Inno aero crossbars, especially the ones with the Through feet. Those look really good on the 4Runner and might be something worth considering as well. And that was a look right here at our Inno roof rack system with the 50-inch long Inno square crossbars and the Inno feet for square crossbars and your raised side rails, right here on our 2016 Toyota 4Runner..

I had an end-cap that was missing and she sent me whole package of four. This is the kind of customer support one hopes to receive when deciding to spend a few hundred dollars on a product. I will definitely return to etrailer if I need another car rack for our other car.
I am writing this review in the context of an owner of a Yakima roof rack system with round crossbars from a vehicle many vehicles prior to the 2021 Hyundai Tucson on which I just installed an INNO roof rack system with the INSUT Feet, INNO NB137 crossbars and 2 INNO INA391 roof bike racks. The INNO crossbars are rectangular in profile, rather than round, but with a grooved top that mates with the INSUT feet, the crossbars should stay firmly put where they are set in the feet. They do not weigh much, but feel pretty solid given their light weight and relatively thin metal walls. One change I would suggest to INNO is to put a factory mark on the center of the crossbars rather than supply a flimsy little decal for the user to measure and place on the crossbars. I never bothered to try to exactly center the round crossbars on my Yakima system, but it is important, at least on the naked roof of the 2021 Tucson, to properly space the feet from the center of the crossbars. I will probably eventually just put a dab of white touch-up paint to mark the center point.
This product exceeded my expectations!! Fit my 2014 Explorer with no issues. Extremely easy to install- took about 15 minutes, these crossbars are sturdy and fit perfectly in the INNO feet that secure to the roof rails- I will be hauling 2 paddle boards and have no doubts that they will travel well. I recommend this product !!
The kit etrailer put together contained all the parts I needed. It took a little figuring to determine how to put it together, but in total only about 30 minutes from box opening to mounting. Now that it is all sized and spaced, it should be much quicker to remount in the future.
I installed it on a 2016 Ford Focus hatchback. I am planning to carry a Thule Cascade 1700 XT rooftop carrier.
So far it looks good. The price was excellent. While driving, it has a bit of an humming noise, but it is not loud or annoying. I like that it has a full set of keys.
All told, it seems like a good product at a reasonable price point.
Really great value! No need to spend a lot on Thule. Even those these are square shaped I actually don't hear much road noise. Besides, you're gonna have music playing or riding with the windows down anyway. I would definitely buy these again.
First and foremost… YES! I would recommend this product to anyone, so def. read further. Price wise… well below what the more known name brands wanted for a similar setup. Product is well made , but if I had to point out one defect… the rubber shoe the rests between the factory roof bar and the inno feet detaches easily during install (see photo). I will figure out how to securely attatch it when I remove it, because (IMO) it's not one of those units that remains on perminantly.
Perfect fit for my car, well packaged and detailed instructions. Easy order process and fast shipping. Will buy from etrailer again. Thank you
Worked great! Held up a roof top tent all summer. No bending or damage from use.
This model is not the most stylish and sleek roof rack but its sturdy and made with quality materials. Easy to set up and its even easier to put on the vehicle and take off the vehicle. I only put the rack on my Ford Focus when I go kayaking. Great bang for buck!
I’ve had this roof rack system for about a year now and it has worked consistently well for the entire 12 months and I believe will continue to work well for me for the for seeable future. I gave it four stars initially and four stars now because I do think the fit and finish of the system could be better. That’s not a dealbreaker for its function because it’s excellent in doing the work it’s designed to do but it just isn’t the prettiest.
Great rack, buy it... it will work hard for you.

I've had Thule bars on my cars for +30 years (Honda, Toyota and Subaru) using both fixed point and clamp on foot packs. This side rail set is better than any Thule branded foot pack I've used. Still using the same square Thule bars I've had since the 1990s. Everything just went together without any fuss. From out of the box to onto the car took 15 minutes. Wanted to add a photo, but the "add photos" button isn't working.
Waited till I put the new rack to work before review. Used it the first time today and it worked Great. Seems like a very durable rack system. Love that everything is rubber coated so it doesnt scratch the paint on your car. Installing instructions where a little confusing but found YouTube videos from etrailer on how to install exact rack system.
Work exactly as described and after a year, still in great condition.
I am a fifty-four year old single woman and being able to install these roof racks by myself makes me feel empowered!!
I watched a video emailed with my delivery confirmation of an installation on a similar vehicle all the way through first, and then watched it again as I did the steps myself, pausing when I needed to.
The products appear to be of high quality, were packaged/shipped neatly and it was easy to organize everything for installation. I couldn't be happier!
This product exceeded my expectations. I purchased these with the INNO square crossbars and they fit my 2014 Explorer perfect!! Extremely easy to install took about 15 minutes. Very sturdy- I will be hauling my two paddle boards and have no doubt they will travel well! I highly recommend this product.

I did the research for a while looking at many different brands for a good quality crossbar at the right price. I came across this one a Japanese brand. As I read more about the brand it has been popular in Japan. I know Japanese product are top quality.
The crossbar, the footing and keys are made with high quality material. Instruction was very clear. Installation took about 10-15 minutes. I love that no tool required to do the install. No wind noise that I can hear at low speed. Have not tested at high speed yet. Overall, highly recommended to anyone looking for a crossbar from a great less polular brand but half the price of other more popular brand.
Just finished installing on my 2021 Toyota Tacoma. Do not waste your time with the cheap paper tape measure that’s my only negative complaint.. other than that the price was right and it looks great! I had to wait a couple months for back order parts but we’ll worth the wait! I have not driven with it yet so I’m assuming there will be wind noise but I’m used to that with having a Jeep renegade as my last vehicle with the cross bars. I’m excited to haul my kayaks!
Rack works great with my 2014 escape carrying a heavy 14 ft old Town and a 10ft kayak. Service is great, was missing 2 endcaps called them up and they sent them out next day.
Fantastic customer service.
Andrea is great.
Thanks for your help!
Quick and easy. This roof rack was shipped quickly. Installation was super easy and it looks like it was made for my truck. Holds my canoe perfectly. Thank you!
My order just arrived this afternoon and I have not yet looked at everything by I am upset over the rails falling out of the box as it is damaged. I will be looking to make sure all parts are contained but so far not thrilled with the condition of the materials as delivered.
Great product so far! Just installed the roof rack on my 2015 Ford Fusion and everything was straight forward. I’m excited to use it while kayaking and traveling!
Easy to install. I’m happy with the product. Shipping took agile but worth it! I added kayak racks and now I’m able to enjoy my life a little more.

The side rail set is great. During a storm, I drove under dangling power line from the pole to a house that I didnt see. The line got caught on my roof rack. The foot pack held as I drove along and snapped the wire. Amazed it didnt rip the whole rack off my car.
