Easy set up, great roof rack. One small problem with installing the rubber strips, piece would not lay flush..



by:

Love them and my Thule aero bars on my WRX



by:

Very pleased with order. Shipped fast, not damaged, all parts accounted for. Easy install, very sturdy, and attractive design. Slight wind noise but that was expected compared to not having a roof rack.



by:

Originally ordered a Yakima system, but availability everywhere was virtually nil. Switched to Thule and ran into some of the same shortages with the supply chain, likely due to Covid. Took about a week to receive and it was the perfect part for my BMW X3.



by:

Great roof cross bars for the Lexus RX450h ! Better and beefier than the OEM cross bars. Yes, these are more expensive (wish they weren't! Locks should be included in the base cost) They are solid and planted the XXL roof carrier with ease. Took a bit to center the roof carrier- so we could open the rear door without crashing into it. Only took a 3 mpg hit with the racks and carrier on the roof (@ +5 mph over speed limit on the highway) I really like the way they look on the vehicle. We're probably going to keep them up for snowboarding season. Keep in mind once they're initially installed- they're a snap to take down as well.I made a mark on the inside on the rails to make reinstalling easier.

I ordered the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 50" with the Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails and the Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Rail and Edge Flush Rail Roof Rack Feet for my 2020 Mazda CX9. I appreciated the product selector to make sure I was getting all the correct parts. I was happy with the products, but I did run into an issue where 1 of the rail feet had a defective bolt which required a replacement. I was very satisfied with etrailer's customer support, and how well they worked with me to get the part replaced quickly.



by:

One year in, this fit kit and the whole system have worked very well on my Kia EV6.

I miss the simplicity, in terms of cost as well as installation and removal, of the old Thule rectangular-bar racks, but this system looks better, is quiet, won't sag, and seems more robust.



by:

Worked as promised. Easy install. We use it for our Kuat bike rack. If you need it for your ID.4 (AWD) get it.



by:

Easy to install, took less than 30 min.
Perfect fit on a Volvo V60 CC.
No issues with a "trunk" mounted bike carrier secured to the rear bar. Yakima Frontloader also fit perfectly.



by:

I ordered a Thule rack, including the mounting feet and the cross bars. I then learned, less than a day and a half from our departure for a ski trip, the mounting feet needed a “kit” of hardware in order to function. I spoke with Justin at etrailer who confirmed the kit was in stock. Though it was mid-afternoon, Justin confirmed with etrailer Shipping the kit could go out for next day delivery. The next morning the kit arrived and I successfully mounted our rack system. Clearly my fault for not getting all the necessary components. Still, Justin solved my problem. “Customer Service” is alive and well at etrailer! Thanks, Justin!



by:

Solid roof rack, but get help from etrailer to make sure you get the core feet.



by:

After searching unsuccessfully for support in the retrofit of my legacy Thule rack to a new car, I was pleased by the excellent support from Bailey B. She was methodical in her query and verification of compatibility in my non-standard application. The rack



by:

Perfect fit and easy installation. Highly recommend for a lower profile rack. Also allows sunroof to vent on 2016 Lexus RX350. Haven’t driven with them on yet so I don’t know how road noise is at this time.



by:

I got my packages today and had it installed within the hour looks great very satisfied



by:

As always, when I need parts or a new roof rack, I look to etrailer to supply my needs. Fair prices, vast inventory and speedy service.



by:

Imagine that…. Easy step by step instructions!!! Had it assembled and on the car in under an hour. Great product, great quality!



by:

Very pleasant experience, end to end. I found exactly what I needed, ordered processed and shipped very quickly.package arrived within 2 days and accurate great job guys. I’ll definitely buy from them again and highly recommended

It took a long time for Thule to make a footkit for the 2021 Hyundai Elantra, but it was worth the wait. The fit on the car, carrying two kayaks, is very secure. We've had it a year with no problems.

E-Trailer was very quick in shipping as always.



by:

Fast shipping, easy installation, excellent quality, highly recommended company and product.



by:

Excellent product. Arrived when promised. Very pleased. Thank you.



by:

I’m extremely satisfied with the fit kit. Strong and secure mounting, traveled 2300 miles and still tight and sturdy as the day I installed.



by:

I just wanted to take a minute to thank Carol C for driving amazing customer service! I ordered a Thule rack system, and the Thule cross bars arrived with the packaging torn partially open, causing some of the cross bar end caps to be lost in transit. Worth noting, the cross bars were in Thule's original packaging, so this was in no way the fault of etrailer. Despite this being a Thule issue, Carol C sent me a new pack of end caps, which I really appreciate...Thanks!



by:

Fit my 2015 Kia Sorento perfectly



by:

These work great on my Jeep Wrangler hard top along with the square cross bars



by:

only problem is that that roof rack is very noisy when we have two kayaks attached.

  • Recommended Thule Roof Rack for Carrying Motion XT Cargo Box on a 2018 Audi Q5
    For your application I recommend using the WingBar Evo over the WingBar Edge to carry the Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH629906 on your 2018 Audi Q5. I personally like the idea of having a bit more roof rack real estate in case you want to use the roof rack for other things in the future. The Edge looks a little more OEM but you only get 37-1/2" of crossbar instead of 50" like what we find with the Evo. Either roof rack will work just fine and the wind noise is going to be the same...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2018 Audi Q5 for Attaching Thule Hullavator
    The Thule Wingbar Evo roof rack for your 2018 Audi Q5 part numbers # TH711320, # TH710601, and # TH186045 would be the best for attaching the Thule Hullavator # TH898 to. The Hullavator would easily fit into the top channels of the Wingbars for a clean and solid connection.

  • Flush Mounted Roof Rack for 2018 Audi Q5
    Roof racks are custom fits for vehicles, and the Thule rack you mentioned is an entire kit and won't fit on your 2018 Audi Q5, although there is a rack with the same style which does. So long as you have flush-mounted rails there is a rack from Inno which has crossbars match the width of your Audi's roof: - Inno Aero Crossbars # INXB100-108 - Inno Flush Feet for Aero Crossbars - Flush Side Rails # INXS400 - Custom Fit Kit for Inno # INTR138 For a Thule roof rack, they have a style where...

  • Can I Fit 2 Thule Hullavators # TH898 on the Roof of My 2019 Audi Q5?
    I have a great solution for carrying your 2 kayaks. If you have a factory roof rack on your 2019 Audi Q5, you will not have enough weight capacity in order to transport the 40-pound (each pair) Thule Hullavators # TH898. I did some research on the weight capacity of the factory roof rack on your vehicle, and you only have 165 pounds of capacity. You will be at 80 pounds with the 2 Hulavators mounted, which leaves only 85 pounds for your 2 additional kayaks. Sadly, even if you have flush...

  • Will the Thule Circuit XT TH526XT Fit AeroBlade Edge Bars on a 2018 Audi Q5
    The Thule Circuit XT TH526XT was a clamp-on style bike rack that fits a crossbar that has max dimensions of 3-1/4" wide x 1-1/2" tall. Since Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack Bars TH7603B-TH7603B are 3-1/8" wide x 1-1/8" tall your bike racks will fit just fine. This roof rack is compatible with your 2018 Audi Q5 when you use the Fit Kit 4078 which has been discontinued. If you would like locks that use the same key for the crossbars and the bike racks then you need the Thule One-Key System...

  • Will I be Able to Mount Accessories to the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars without Detaching the Feet?
    Never fear! You will be able to keep the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711300 installed on your 2018 Audi Q5 when mounting accessories (such as ski holders, bike racks, etc.). You will not have to detach the feet any time during the process. For a complete setup, you will need to following parts in addition to the WingBar Evo crossbars: - Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails # TH710601 - Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet - 186045 # TH186045 - Thule One-Key...

  • Parts Needed for Thule Roof Rack to Fit 2018 Audi Q5
    If you have at least 47" WingBar Evo bars, like part # TH711200 or # TH711220, then all you need to complete the roof rack system on your 2018 Audi Q5 is the Foot Pack # TH710601, and Fit Kit # TH186045. You might be able to get by with using slightly longer crossbars but since the opening on the underside of the WingBar crossbars doesn't run completely from one side to the other you won't be able to go with much longer bars.

  • Which Roof Rack And Spare Tire Carrier To Clear Tailgate On 2018 Audi Q5
    We definitely have an option to get you a full size spare tire carrier and roof rack that will clear the tailgate on your 2018 Audi Q5! I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack System which will use Thule WingBar Evo 47" Aluminum Crossbars # TH711220, Thule Evo Flush Rail Feet # TH710601, and Custom Fit Kit # TH186045. This is a great light weight system that offers a 165lb weight capacity and is confirmed to fit your Audi Q5. I recommend adding the Thule One Key Lock Cores # TH450400...

  • Will The SportRack Skyline XL Cargo Carrier Fit A 2018 Audi SQ5?
    The SportRack SkyLine XL Cargo Box - Roof Mount # SR29ZR that you mentioned will work just fine with your 2018 Audi SQ5! This cargo carrier will work with round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars. For a crossbar recommendation, I recommend taking a look at the: -Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum # TH711200, with the feet # TH710601, and the fit kit # TH186045. These bars are quiet, aerodynamic, low-profile with a maximum capacity of 220-lbs, and measures 47"...

  • Thule Wingbar Evo Roof Rack Components that Fit 2023 Audi Q5
    The Thule components needed for an Wingbar Evo roof rack for your 2023 Audi Q5 are part # TH711300, # TH710601, # TH186045. The parts from your 2015 AllRoad are part # TH711220 and # TH710401 which would indicate you'll need an all new rack setup most likely but your slightly shorter bars most likely would work although it's not recommended length. So there's a good chance all you need is the part # TH710601 and # TH186045.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2018 Audi Q5 with Panoramic Sunroof
    The excellent Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack, which consists of # TH711220 for the two 47 inch WingBar Load Bars, # TH710601 for the Foot Pack, and # TH186045 for the Fit Kit, is actually confirmed to fit your 2018 Audi Q5. While the roof rack will install without issue with the Audi's panoramic sunroof, it is not recommend to operate the sunroof with the crossbars attached. This is really the case with any roof rack system. This is especially true if you have any mounted accessories like...

  • Will Older Hullavator 897XT Fit on 2019 Audi SQ5?
    It sounds like you have the older Hullavator 897XT which was replaced by the Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898. As for if it will fit your new 2019 Audi SQ5, the answer is YES! What the Hullavator needs is around 28-1/2" inches of bar space and a roof rack with a good amount of weight capacity to handle the rack's 41 lbs plus up to 75 lbs of kayak. With the older Hullavator 897XT, you would need the watersports adapter # THXADAPT11 to work with T-track bars. If you do not yet have a roof rack...

  • Thule Roof Rack Recommendation for 2018 Audi Q5
    For your for your 2018 Audi Q5 we have the Thule WingBar system consisting of # TH711420, # TH710601, and # TH186045, and you can then use # TH450400 for locks to deter theft and protect your investment. With this rack (and all other roof racks) you'll have to keep the sunroof closed at all times when the rack is installed. Even if you could open the sunroof you wouldn't want to since it would cause quite a bit of wind noise.

  • 2020 Audi Q5 What Can I Do If OEm Crossbars Are Not Level?
    All of the roof racks we carry for your vehicle will use the same tower assembly for all four towers. For example the Thule roof rack consisting of the Wingbars # TH711320, Foot pack # TH710601 and fit kit # TH186045. All four of the # TH710601 towers are the same height. So if the curvature of the roof causes the OEM crossbars to be slightly uneven, this will also be the case with an aftermarket roof rack. Unfortunately there is no work around.
