2019 Honda CR-V Roof Rack and Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Flush Rails
Question:
Thank you for your reply. After reading your response, it doesn't sound like the system you're recommending will meet my needs. We currently have crossbars that connect to the fixed mounting points in the side rails. The problem is when we put our rooftop cargo carrier on the crossbars, we're unable to fully open the rear cargo door on our CRV. With where the cross bars are fixed, the rooftop cargo carrier sits too far back, thus keeping the read cargo door from opening. This is why we need a roof where the crossbars can attached wherever we need them, not just at the fixed mounting points. I'm hoping etrailer.com sells a roof rack that will work for us, but I understand if you don't. Thank you again for your time.

If you had the raised rails on your 2019 Honda CR-V we have a handful of roof racks that can be adjusted back and forth like what you're talking about - since you have the flush rails all of the roof racks will fit to those fixed points. For your application I really like the Thule WingBar Evo crossbars because of their new, sleek design and the dual rubber strip in the top channel that makes installing channel-mount accessories a breeze:
47" WingBar Evo Crossbars - Black # TH711220 or Silver # TH711200
Rapid Podium Feet - # TH460R
Fit Kit - # THKIT3166
Lock Core Kit - # TH450400 (optional)
If you let me know what you plan on using the roof rack for I'll be more than happy to make an additional recommendation.
