My recommendation is the Thule rain gutter mounted roof rack system. It has a weight limit of 165 lbs. It consists of the following:

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2, part # TH711520,
Rapid Gutter Feet for Thule Crossbars - Rain Gutters -8" Tall - Qty 4, part # TH33ZR, and the
Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4, part # TH450400.

These crossbars are elliptical in shape to help with wind noise and aid with fuel efficiency. In addition, they also have t-channels. These crossbars can accept all channel mounted accessories as well as those that clamp to the crossbars. If you add the locks you can secure this rack to your vehicle.

I have included product description links and an installation video below.

The stoplight switch #RM-751490 and the monitor light that's included in the Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System #SM99251 do the same job, so you wouldn't need it if you decided to go with the Stay-IN-Play DUO. The…

Answer 8

There have not been any major changes to the Stay-In-Play system since 2016, so I believe it certainly would be worthwhile (and a $$$ saver) to remove the major parts from the now-wrecked car. Provided you can get that done for a reasonable cost.…
