Expert Reply:

Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Leg Kit # RRRLKHD is just the legs but for them to actually fit your 2012 Hyundai Elantra you need the proper clamp kit.

If you have a 4-door sedan with no rails or crossbars already on the roof you would use clamp kit # DK301 and bars # RB1250. If you have a Touring model with no rails or crossbars you would use clamp kit # DK010 and bars # RB1250. Clamp kits have what is basically a hook that attaches to the roof right above the doors in the door jamb.

If you had a Touring model with side rails that run front to back you would use a different leg kit, # RRSX100, and Vortex bars # RRVA118B-2 or # RRVA118S-2.

If you have a 5-door hatchback model which all seem to have side rails, you would need a different rack, since Rhino-Rack does not list a fit for this configuration. You could use Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 and 53" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420.

The feet for vehicles that have side rails will either clamp to the bars or have a rubber strap that goes around the bars.
