Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2016 Toyota Highlander that Attaches to Factory Fixed Points
Question:
Looking for a roof rack for a 2016 Toyota Highlander. There are essentially no side rails on this model, but there are 4 access panels on the roof that allow a set of OEM roof cross bars to be installed using J-hooks which attach to brackets under the access panels. Are there any aftermarket options that install using these clips? The options I see on your website all appear to hook into the door frame which I want to avoid. Thanks!

We have several roof rack options that will fit the factory fixed mounting points you have on your 2016 Toyota Highlander. The Rhino-Rack system parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRCP31-BK and # RRRCL4 is confirmed to fit your vehicle and would be an excellent option. This rack uses flush mounted bars that do not extend past the feet of the rack for an OEM look that will provide minimal wind noise.
