Expert Reply:

The thing about the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 is that it HAS to go on Thule crossbars. The reason is that this thing puts quite a bit of torque on the roof rack of a vehicle so the only bars they tested that are compatible the Thule Aero or Thule square.

You would need to remove the BMW bars you had installed and install a Thule rack to install the Hullavator. For a Thule rack I would recommend the WingBar aero, for that you would need the following parts:

47 inch Crossbars part # TH711200
Thule Foot Pack # TH710601
Thule Roof Rack Fit Kit part # TH186007
