Best Roof Rack for 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB with Raised Side Rails
Question:
Can you tell me what the best roof rack would be for my 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB? It has the raised side rails on top so I'd like to use something that just attaches really quickly onto those. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The best roof rack for your 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB with the raised side rails is from Yakima because it will give your Mercedes a rack that is both quiet and strong while maintaining your Mercedes' distinguished look. The rack is made up of just a couple parts:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425
- TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR
- Same Key System Lock Cores (Optional) # Y07204
The aerodynamic shape of the JetStream crossbars, along with their built-in WindRidges, ensure that this roof rack minimizes the wind noise that other types of lower-quality crossbars create. The JetStream crossbars are also extremely functional and durable due to their anodized aluminum construction, which not only provides them with optimal strength (165 lb capacity) but also is what gives them a lifetime warranty so you never have to worry about needing new crossbars.
The Yakima JetStream bars for your Mercedes also have T-slots which allow you to use channel-mounted accessories; the T-slots have rubber "SmartFill" strips in them which means you are not going to have to cut them to mount accessories like other bars require - you can simply push the strips in to use the T-slots.
I have added links to some video reviews for you to check out as well.
