The key to confirming a good fit of a wind fairing like the Rhino-Rack # RRRF3 on a factory-installed roof rack crossbar is knowing the bar dimensions and the size of fairing you want.

This particular fairing measures 44-inches and its mounting hardware will fit a crossbar up to 1-1/4-inches tall x 3-1/2-inches wide. The bar also needs to provide at least 7/8-inch of room between the vehicle roof and the bottom of the bar; and there needs to be at least 35-1/2-inches of available bar between the foot assemblies.

If you wish you can let me know the measurements noted above and I will be glad to assist further.
