Helpful Expert Reply:
The Yakima EasyTop, part # Y07418, is going to be tightened down to the roof, and there should be no noise caused by the straps inside the vehicle. With proper installation, there should be minimal noise from the straps.
When installed, the roof rack will not interfere with the power windows on your vehicle, and will run inside the door jamb, away from the windows.
I've included a video below that details the installation and use of the Yakima EasyTop so you can get a better idea of its features and performance.
