Recommended Crossbars for a 2024 Subaru BRZ With a Bare Roof
Question:
Im trying to find a rooftop tent that will fit on a 2024 BRZ without touching the rear windshield I have expensive louvers that Im not keen on removing while still leaving extra room for an additional cargo box next to it like the Thule Foothill is able to do. Unfortunately, I dont know how to mount the racks because its a sports coupe. But as a Subaru Owner, Im determined to go camping in the mountains with my family car! Ive looked in to SeaSucker Monkey Bars which would be perfect if I only needed it for storage, but they wont do the trick for sleeping on top even if they were compatible with the tent : Pictures not mine, but they show what I want to do :

From what I've gathered the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B is going to be your only option to add crossbars to your 2024 Subaru BRZ.
These bars are not going to work with a roof top tent like the Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars # Y07436 since all roof top tents are designed to be used with flush rails or raised rails.
The good news is that you can still use a cargo box like the Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box # TH615. So as it stands right now, there is no option that will allow you to mount a roof top tent with your BRZ, unfortunately.
