Will Thule Aero Crossbars Work On a 2015 Acura MDX with Bare Roof

Question:

I have Thule aero bar and am trying to find a foot pack that would work to attach it to a 2015 Acura MDX bare roof no rails or bars. Thule’s website says there are not any options for my setup. Are there other brands of foot packs that are compatible with the Thule aero bar that will attach to my Acura’s roof? Thanks.

I do have roof rack options for a 2015 Acura MDX but Thule does not offer any for bare roof models and since you can't mix and match crossbars and feet from a different brand you won't be able to use Thule crossbars. Instead, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar System part # RRVA137B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK400. This system has aero shaped crossbars and is very cost effective when compared to other like options.
