Inno Roof Rack Review - 2017 Subaru Forester INB117- Video
Today on our 2017 Subaru Forester we're going to be test fitting the Inno roof rack system consisting of part numbers IN-B117, and these are the Inno square cross bars, 46 inches long, and part number IN-FR, and these are the Inno feet for the square cross bars, particularly for factory raised side rails. We already have the front one installed, you can see we have a rubber coated steel strap that wraps around the factory side rail itself, and then we have this cover here which is lockable, so once you install these these are actually secured to your side rail. The bar itself is nice and heavy duty. Combined with the rear cross bar it has a carrying capacity of 220 pounds, although you always want to double check with your manufacturer's recommendations to make sure that the weight isn't too much for your actual roof. Let's go ahead and show you how the rear one installs. We already have it partially assembled on our table here. We have our foot as well as our covers, we've already taken our end-cap off, and pretty much what's going to happen here is this square portion here is just going to fit over our cross bar. Just slides on like so, I'll go ahead and put the end-cap on just so we don't forget it. more
