How to Install the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker on a Vehicle with Factory Crossbars

Question:

Hello Etrailer, I need to figure out what I need to purchase a Rhinorack sunseeker I have a Honda CRV 2017 with original roof racks and dealer installed crossbars. Please advise which awing size would best fit my car And What do I need to mount awing? Additional hardware? Thank you

The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning, part # RR32133, mounts to either the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform or the T-slots of other crossbars.

Your 2017 Honda CR-V with factory crossbars do not have T-slots, so your only option is to attach a Pioneer Platform. The small capacity universal one is part # RR42114BF. The Sunseeker will attach directly to this. I've linked to a video review of this platform for you to look at.
