Can I Use My Old Thule Rapid Traverse Feet On My New 2020 Volkswagen Jetta?
Question:
I have a Thule Rapid Traverse foot pack and am buying a new 2020 VW Jetta without a roof rack. Id like to keep the Rapid Traverse feet......bought new in 2017. Is there not a Thule adapter fit kit for my feet and a 2020 Jetta? This is not an older foot from Thule......hoping theres a fit kit and I dont have to repurchase the feet as well. Thanks in advance!

Expert Reply:
I reached out to Thule about your specific question and I found that you cannot use the Thule Rapid Traverse Foot Pack # TH480R for your new 2020 Volkwagen Jetta. The only Thule roof rack feet you can use on your new Volkswagen Jetta is the Evo Clamp Feet # TH710501 with this fit kit # TH145204.
If you had Thule 53" Wingbar Evo Crossbars # TH711420 on your other vehicle you can use them with the Evo Clamp feet!
