Yes! The Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier # TH834 comes with 2 metal clamps per each cradle that allow you to attach them to your round, square, elliptical, and factory crossbars. I went ahead and attached a photo of the clamps that come with the carrier.

If you happen to have Thule Aeroblade or WingBar Evo crossbars on your vehicle, you need the adapter # THXADAPT11 in order to complete the installation.
