I understand how the photos are a bit deceiving when looking at the brackets that are used to secure the roof rack to the door jambs. I have attached a couple of photos that show how the brackets look with the door on the vehicle open and also what it looks like when the door is closed. The clamps are actually shaped to fit the contour of the inside of the door jamb.
The Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Vortex roof rack is a nice aerodynamic roof rack. The c-channels on the crossbars help reduce wind noise. To order this roof rack you will need part # RRVA137B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK108.
The roof rack comes with plastic locks to help deter theft but if you want to replace them with all metal locks you can order part # RRVA-LEC4.
