Fairing Recommendation to Fit Rola Aero Crossbars

Question:

Do you know if these could be mounted to cross bars from other manufacturers? Specifically, we have a 2013 Mazda 5, with a permanently mounted set of ROLA crossbars. The Rola system works very well, and is very strong, but is very noisy over 65 MPH. Probably due to the fact that the leading edge pitches downward slightly.

I believe I have a solution for you, but the Thule AirScreen Fairing # TH82WV that you referenced is only confirmed as a fit for Thule crossbars so I wouldn't recommend it for you.

The Rhino Rack fairing part # RRRF3 is 44 inches in length and can fit crossbars that are 1-1/4 inches tall and 3-1/2 inches wide. You would need to compare it to the dimensions of your current crossbars, but this would have the best chance at fitting. The Rola bars we carry are 3-1/8 inches wide and 1 inch tall so this should work well for you.

Or if you wanted a Yakima Fairing the part # Y05018 will basically fit any crossbar since it has a zip tie like attachment style that will allow it to basically fit any bar.
