Custom fit kit lets you mount Rhino-Rack RC or RV series legs to a vehicle with fixed mounting points. Legs mount to vehicle with attachment studs. Molded inserts cover bases when the legs are removed. Includes 4 pads, covers, and mounting hardware.These were the only mounts I could find to fit a 2019 Toyota Highlander LE factory roof bolts. Have never used Rhino Racks before but was very happy to find their sturdy mounts for aero bar legs.
We bought the Rhino Rack after realizing that neither of the other brands would fit right onto our Highlander. I ended up having to purchase both of the other major brands to figure that out. In the end, I found out that the Rhino rack fit exactly to the stock configuration of our car. It also held much more weight than the comparable brands. We could not be happier with this rack. I would recommend just skipping the other brands and getting the Rhino Rack regardless of your vehicle model. I found it to be a very well-designed rack system. All of the accessories fit perfectly. It even looks great on our car.
Was impressed with the quality and fit these had on my 2019 Toyota Highlander. Very, very simple installation
I purchased the Rhino Rack roof rack as an alternative to the factory installed products and the more popular Thule and Yakima brands. The Rhino Rack is solid and sleek and is largely silent while driving (if I have the roof open you can hear a soft whistle). Not only does the rack look fantastic, but the non-slip top and the strong bars make carrying things on top a real pleasure.
Rhino Rack was the only company that makes a direct bolt roof rack for a flat roof Toyota Highlander. We love it for hauling tje Kayaks.
So fast. So easy. Along with etrailer's installation video this was super easy. The video takes you through every step - specific to your vehicle.
Easy to attach to our 2017 Toyota Highlander. Very secure. etrailer's customer service is exceptional!
Required for mounting rails and base. No issues.
One of the rubber mold that suppose to conform to the roof line did not sit very snug to the roof line. Hoping it will not be an issue.
Thanks again etrailer for making this easy and putting all the required parts together for me.
Fits great to 2017 Highlander LE
They were very attentive and helpfulwhen I called for specific fit information and they shipped out my part quickly
fit my care perfectly!
Perfect
These Rhino-Rack products are solid. Installation was quite simple. It took me no more than 2 hours from taking off the OEM rails to getting the crossbars to tighten down.
Keep in mind that these legs were designed for the Toyota Prado (it even says so on the installation guide). Once you remove the Lexus OEM rails, you will notice a groove, about 3/4" deep and 1-1/8" wide, alongside the roof. If your GX does not come with the OEM rails, the grooves might already be covered up by the factory drip trim pieces (Toyota PN 75557-60050, 75555-60030). This Rhino rack kit does not come with any hardware to cover up the grooves. I was told they would not cause any leaks because the mounting points are tightly sealed.
But if you have severe OCD like me, those grooves will be bothering you (even though you can't see them). Instead of paying over $xxx for the OEM trims pieces. Fill them up with some 3/4"wide 3/8 inch thick insulation tape, then tape a strip of 1" wide, 1/8" thick neoprene rubber strip on top. The end product looks just like OEM. I hope my simple idea will help other fellow OCD survivors.
Update to my review: etrailer sent additional strips to set into the gaps on the bottom side of the rails and there is no longer any whistling, so I've rerated my purchase to Excellent. I'm not sure if the strips for the bottom side (the side that faces the roof of the car) should have come with my rails to begin with or if they need to be purchased separately (etrailer sent them to me at no charge after my initial review). Covering those gaps with duct tape will also do the trick.
The Rhino Rack BLOCKS my SUNROOF. It was recommended for my 2018 Highlander on the etrailer website. A 2018 Highlander with a sunroof is shown on etrailer in the install video. However, I can not open my sunroof. etrailer refuses to refund or exchange it and have no options for fixing this issue!
Rock solid attachment, the install didn’t go as smooth as hoped, but got it to work. Customer service was very available, though I do t think anything they could have done to make the install easier - chalked up to slight car model variations.
