Helpful Expert Reply:
Since your 2016 Mercedes-Benz Metris has no existing rails you should get the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, either black # RRVA150B-2 or silver # RRVA150S-2 and mount them to the Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRRLT600 and you'll need these Rubber Bases # RRQMFK06 for the RRRLT600 feet.
Once you have these installed, the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning # RR32133 will install right to the Vortex Aero Bars. There is an Extension Piece # RR32112 for the Sunseeker. This is nice whenever you're not sure when or where the awning will be up like at tailgates or other events. I never know where I'm parking at tailgates so with the extension, once I find a spot I can block the sun or the other team's fans from view if need be.
Collin goes over the install and some features of both the Sunseeker Awning and extension if you would like to see it in action!
