Can You Use Old Thule Square Crossbars On a 2021 Honda Pilot

Question:

I have long, square Thule bars. My SUV is a 2021 Honda Pilot naked roof. What do I need to purchase to mount the square Thule bars to my Pilot.

I have some options for you but also some unfortunate news, the old Thule square crossbars are obsolete and they don't offer/make parts to use them anymore. Therefore, you really don't have an option to use these bars on your vehicle and if you want a roof rack you'd have to obtain a completely new system. If I were you, I would go with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar System composed of part # RRVA137B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK444. This is an aero bar system so they will be much quieter than the square bars and it's more cost effective than most other aero bar systems.
