Compatibility of Rhino Rack Cross Bars with Thule Kayak Carrier

Question:

Will this roof rack fit on a 2 door g5? If it will, will my thule kayak carriers and my 11 foot kayaks sit on them?

The part # you referenced, # DK182 is the vehicle specific portion of the roof rack system that actually attaches the rack to the vehicle. This is the correct part for your Pontiac G5.

I do not have any information regarding the fit of Thule products on a Rhino Rack system as the individual companies do not typically test the compatibility with competitor products. They would prefer you buy their accessories for their roof rack systems.

That being said, I can give you the dimensions of the bars themselves, and by measuring the mounts on your kayak carrier, you should be able to determine if they will fit on the Rhino Rack cross bars. The bars measure 3-1/8 inches wide and 1-1/4 inches tall.
