Malone  Roof Rack Review - 2014 GMC Acadia

Speaker 1: Today on our 2014 GMC Acadia we're going to be test fitting the Malone Steel Top Roof Rack System. And this is going to consist of part numbers MPG202. These bars are going to be 58" long and this installation process will also apply to part number MPG201 which are the 50" crossbars. This is a great roof rack system that will allow you to carry a wide variety of accessories on your roof ranging from bike racks to cargo baskets to cargo boxes. These are the square bars so when you have these on you will experience some noise while you travel. We do offer fairings at etrailer.com to help take down that wind noise and drag and they attach simply by wrapping around the existing bars.Since these are square load bars you cannot use T-track accessories with these. more

Yakima  Roof Rack Review - 2015 GMC Acadia

Speaker 1: Today in our 2015 GMS Acadia, we're going to be test fitting the Yakima JetStream roof rack system, consisting of part numbers Y00425. These are the JetStream crossbars, 50 inches long. These also come in silver if you like.We'll also be using part number Y00147 and these are the TimberLine towers, specifically designed to go around your factory raised side rails.This is a great roof rack system because you can carry a wide variety of accessories on your roof while freeing up space inside your Acadia. This can carry anything from bike racks to cargo baskets to cargo boxes with ease. And also, if we remove our end cap here, you can also utilize T-track accessories with this as well.And what sets this apart from the other roof rack systems out there, normally you would have to remove the center strip, cut it to length, put the accessory in place, then put the strip back around it. With this, you simply push down the strip in the center here and slide your T-track accessory in, not having to cut anything.These do have nice aerodynamic shape to them and that, coupled with that strip at the top, as well as the strip that you cut to length underneath, will cut down the wind noise and drag while you drive virtually eliminating the need for any aftermarket fairings like you would have to get with square or round bars.How it wraps around here it goes around nice and tight around your existing factory raised side rail and tightens down. more
