Can The Rhino-Rack Batwing Attach To Roof Rails Without Crossbars.
Question:
Is there a hardware setup which attaches awning Rhino or Yakima to rails that run lengthwise along a vehicle? My minivan has solar panels on top and I cant install crossbars.

Expert Reply:
The Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning - Roof Rack Mount - Bolt On - Passenger's Side - 118 Sq Ft # RR33200 requires the use of cross bars to be safely installed and anchored to your vehicle. This is true for Yakima products as well.
However the Rightline Gear SUV Tailgate Awning - 8' Long x 6' Wide # RG44FR does not require cross bars or rails to be attached or used.
