Will Old Thule Square Crossbars Fit 2020 Subaru Outback
Question:
I own 60 thule square bars steel and used a strap.mount on our raised rail roof rack. We sold that car and bought a 2020 subaru with the stow away cross bars. Do you sell a pedistool mount that will work for my factory crossbars and allow me to use my square bars I already own. I did not get much help from Thule. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Thule changed their crossbars style and how they mount some time ago (they all use a channel underneath to mount on the foot pack), so there is not way to use your older Thule square crossbars on your 2020 Subaru Outback. You'd have to go with a new rack system, which for your Outback consists of the following:
- Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars # TH712100 or Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711120
- Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710601
- Fit Kit # TH37CE
