Recommended Roof Rack for a 2020 Honda Pilot w/ Flush Rails
Question:
I have a 2020 Honda Pilot Touring with flush roof rails. I need a rack that can mount to those flush rails. I would like a rack that I can clamp anywhere along those rails - not the fixed point mount rails. Do you have any that would fit this way?

Expert Reply:
No, we do not because the 2020 Honda Pilot's flush roof rails have holes predrilled into them to attach the crossbars. All of the available roof racks mount to the flush rails this way and can not be adjusted. There are no clamping roof racks that will secure to the rails without being screwed into these holes.
To add a roof rack to your 2020 Honda Pilot's flush roof rails, I recommend the roof rack by Thule which includes the following parts:
Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 53" Long - Qty 2 item # TH711420
Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails - Qty 4 item # TH710601
Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Rail and Edge Flush Rail Roof Rack Feet - 6111 item # TH75RE
I have linked an installation video below so you can see this roof rack getting installed on a 2019 Pilot. The steps will be the same. If you skip ahead to the 8:20 mark you can briefly see the holes on the rails where the crossbars mount.

Hello, Can you provide the video that shows this system being mounted on a Pilot, please? (ours is a 2022 with flush rails). I'm looking for a system that is easily removeable. We only use a rack on occasion to carry kayaks, (with a 60 inch cross bar), and I don't want something that has ugly "feet" that stay on the car or is a pain in the neck to attach/detach. Thank you.
