Helpful Expert Reply:
For a roof rack for your 2004 Volkswagen Passat the Rhino Rack that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 2004 Volkswagen Passat with a naked roof and would work very well for you.
All you would need is the two part numbers you referenced. Part # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA for the feet and part # DK004 for the fit kit.
This rack has a weight capacity of 165 lbs, you will need to consult the owners manual of your vehicle to determine the roof capacity of your vehicle and be sure not to exceed the lower of the two figures.
