Roof Rack For 2016 Subaru Legacy
Question:
I have a factory roof rack from previous car Madza 5 that needs the roof track. I would like to put it on my 2016 Subaru Legacy that doesnt have the track. Is there anything else other than drilling holes in the roof that will hold the rack to the roof . the feet go into the rack and rubber would just hit the roof. I thought it would be cheaper using old rack that selling that one and buying new rack. I have a Thule rooftop carrier I want to use. The more I look at my care the more I realize no adaptor will work. My car is not made for a roof rack. If anything I would have to buy one to fit car and not adapt the one I have. Thanks for all your help.

Yes, you are correct! The best option is to install a new compete roof rack. Because installing the factory rack from the Mazda 5 on your Subaru may be a more difficult install than what I can provide you, and also the rack may not even fit since it's not meant for the Subaru. The Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # RR37XR is affordable and gives the appearance of a factory installed roof rack after install. It features integrated locks that deter theft. This quiet, aerodynamic roof rack lets you carry gear on your vehicle's naked roof. This rack is perfect to carry your Thule rooftop carrier.
This system utilizes a clamp-style attachment to secure itself onto your vehicle's roof.
