I have a great solution for you. When you say you are in need of securing rails to your 2005 Toyota Avalon, I am assuming you are looking for a crossbar system. Unfortunately, I confirmed with all our manufacturers that there are no traditional roof rack systems available for your bare roof on your 2005 Toyota Avalon.

With that being said, we do have an amazing option. I recommend the SeaSucker Monkey Bars # 298-SX6000B. The SeaSucker comes with an amazing 150-pound weight capacity. Also, it has the easiest installation and removal process out of all roof racks we carry. Since the crossbars on the Monkey Bars are 1-1/4" diameter, they are compatible with most crossbar accessories. The vacuum cups on SeaSucker products are extremely powerful. I went ahead and attached a video that shows the true power of the cups. These cups are also compatible if you have the panoramic roof model Avalon.

To add theft-deterrence measures to the Monkey Bars, I recommend the etrailer Cable Lock # e98891 along with the SeaSucker Window Cable Anchor # 298-BA0010.

As with all roof racks, I recommend confirming with your owner's manual to make sure your roof can accommodate the weight you wish to transport.
