Thule Roof Rack Review - 2012 Honda CR-V- Video
Today, in our 2012 Honda CRV, we're gonna be test fitting the Thule Aeroblade Roof Rack System, consisting of part numbers THARB53, these are the aeroblade load bars, part number TH460R, these are the Thule podium foot pegs for the aerobars, and part number THKIT3118, and this is the custom fit kit prince podium foot style foot pack. The Thule Aeroblade Roof Rack System is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories onto your roof while freeing up space inside your vehicle. The two bars have a combined carrying capacity of 168 pounds, although you always want to double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure your roof can withstand that weight. It has a rubber airstrip up at the top, and that coupled with the aerodynamic shape of the bar will cut down wind noise and drag while you're driving. Also, we have these knockouts here, which you can replace with Thule lock horse, so you can actually secure this to the roof of your vehicle. Now that we've gone over some of the features of the roof rack, let's go ahead and show you how it installs. We have our front bars already installed, so first we'll start off on our table here. We'll flip our bar upside down and we'll install our podium foot pack onto our bar. more

Thule Podium Roof Rack Installation - 2012 Honda CR-V- Video
Today on our 2012 Honda CR-V, we'll be test fitting the Thule Square Load Bar Roof Rack System using the 58 inch bars, part number THLB58 the Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack for Square Load Bars, part number TH460 and the Thule Roof Rack Fit Kit for the Podium Style Foot Pack, part number THKIT3118. To begin our test fit, we need to remove the covers on our flush mounted side rails. Now we'll remove the covers that cover up our bolt holes. With our roof rack system assembled according to the instructions, we'll go ahead and place our first bar directly onto the front part of our roof. We want to make sure that the feet of our front bar line up nicely with the appropriate holes. Once we have it in place and once the overhang of our bars are even, we can then tighten down our foot pack to our bar, so they don't slide around. Once we have our foot packs tight, we can then grab our bolts and our Allen key and mount our feet to our flush mounted side rails. With both bolts tight on their side, we'll move to the driver side and repeat the same process. more
