Landing Pads mount to existing tracks and combine with SkyLine and Control Towers to create a base for an aftermarket roof-rack system.They were relatively easy to install, I received them in short order and I am happy with their substantial construction. In short, I'm a happy camper. Thank you.
Easy to install and sturdy. I carry a 9' pontoon boat on my camper shell using this rack at freeway speeds with no problems.
Excellent service

The landing pad for the 2024 RAV4 has only one screw to hold it in place. Do not over-tighten that screw, that will result in the width of the connection holes on the pad bowing and moving closer together, then the sky tower attachment will not fit into the mounting location. The Yakama installation instructions did not directly address this potential.
The landing pad for a 2004 Honda CR-V used two screws for each pad, and the issue did not occur.
Great quality! They come with two different style bases. One flat, and one that is stepped to account for the raised area near the gutter trim. Good variety of screws to meet your application. My 2015 Mazda 3 (with fixed points) needed the medium length screws. Seems very solid!
I left the plastic gutter moldings on and just drilled holes for the screws to go through.
Landing Pad 23 fits my RAV4 Prime perfectly. No issues in the install other than the torque might be more than needed as it deforms the cars roof rail and the fitting (pad) deforms so that the male mount on the racks won't fit. I had to open them up by loosening the bolt to the point it would fit. All good!
This fits a 2020 Rav4 perfectly. This will prolong all my yakima rack accessories that I have.
Very happy with our purchase. I love how easily you can remove the entire rack easily. Too bad the locking mechanism comes separately but we are still happy with what we received.
Yakima Landing Pad 22 is the only product I could find that is suitable for my Mercedes E450 Coupe. The car's panoramic glass extends close to where the fixed mounting points are, but Yakima has accounted for that by designing the LP 22 so that the small part that sits on the glass is not transferring the load. Also, the LP22 accommodates the flip-open doors for the four fixed mounting points on the Mercedes. Yakima instruction manual and etrailer.com videos are highly useful.
Only complaint is with the LP 22 Covers, which are supplied for when the roof rack (Towers and Crossbars) are removed. These covers are not usable - they do not snap into place and appear as if they were designed for a different landing pad. This is not a deal breaker for me because I remove the LP 22s whenever I remove the roof rack, but it will likely be a concern for others.
The materials are high quality and finished well. Tightening the bolts causes the receivers to bow inward and made it very difficult to install the Skyline tower base.
I didn’t buy a fuel-efficient vehicle with a sunroof so that I could drive around with a roof rack! This rack system goes on and off so quickly and easily, saving me fuel economy and freeing up my sunroof. It’s been a year and it’s been great.
Used these on my 2011 BMW 335. It took a little while to get the threads to catch on the roof attachment the first time I installed them. Otherwise they do what they are supposed to do and don't scratch the roof.
Parts arrived quickly. Installation was a breeze. Everything needed for a quick and professional installation was included in the shipment.
Rack landing pads for my car model were back ordered and unavailable from [online vendor] and direct from Yakima itself. etrailer had them in stock and shipped them to me on time. nuff said!
Everything worked out great, free shipping only took three days as well.
Top of the line!!
My son is very pleased with his Yakima Rack. Glad HE MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE ! Iam back on line to order his bike attachments.
Hats off to etrailer and Lori B. Had ordered the wrong roof crossbars for my daughter's 2021 Kia Soul. Called on a Sunday, the day after Chritmas and Lori B answered the phone. Told her my issue within 5 minutes problem was resolved and the " Right" parts were headed my way. Outstanding Customer Service thank you so much. Customer for life!
Product required a bit of customizing because the pads are a little tall and hollow, so when you tighten center bolt, pad will try to collapse inwards unless you find a proper spacer in length under the pad (NOT PROVIDED BY YAKIMA, NOT ETRAILER'S FAULT), but once that spacer was put in place, it turned out beautifully.
I know you’re looking at this saying why so much money? Idk but it is supper strong held my roof top tent and a lot of weight off road on road and then some
Do you have a question about this Roof Rack?
