Hi everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at and later we'll be showing you how to install this Yakima JetStream Roof Rack System on our 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan.

Hi, everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at, and later, we'll be showing you how to install this Inno Roof Rack system for raised rails on our 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan. It's important to note that this is for raised rails, which is great, because that's what your Tiguan comes with. And if you're looking to expand the function of your vehicle, the best place to go in my opinion, in this case at least, is the roof, because you already have these raised rails, why not utilize them This is gonna be the easiest way to attach a roof rack for any car out there. Any car with raised rails, I always recommend a roof rack, because it's so easy to install and it's just a lot less complicated than other kits like I've used on my own vehicles in the past. This option from Inno will clamp around the bar. more

Yakima JetStream Crossbars Roof Rack Installation - 2022 Volkswagen Taos

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today I have a Yakima roof rack system with the 50 inch long bars and the TimberLine towers. We'll take a look at how it fits our 2022 Volkswagen Taos. So your Volkswagen Taos has a raised rail meaning there's a rail that goes up but you can also fit things underneath it. Now because of how small it is, this actually doesn't fit perfectly for all roof rack brands. So some roof racks need a special clamp that's smaller in order to securely fit around this rail system. But since the Yakima TimberLine towers have a strap that go around, then you don't have that issue. more

This is gonna be the Rhino-Rack roof rack that has a 54 inch long vortex crossbars and you have the feet that clamp around the raised rails on your Volkswagen Atlas. In this video I'll explain why this might be easier to install compared to other roof rack brands and also what you might consider depending on what you wanna carry, if this is the right fit for you. So the 54 inch long crossbars means that you have longer bars that have overhang. Overhang is the measurement from the tower to right before the end cap. more

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at our Rhino-Rack roof rack system here on our 2021 Volkswagen Jetta. This system has the 49 inch long vortex aero crossbars, the towers for naked roofs and the custom fit kit for your Volkswagen Jetta. You can get longer crossbars of up to 54 inches if you want more overhang, but the downside to too much overhang is you're more likely to hit your head against the crossbar getting into the car. So that is something to consider. This is a very good balance between the two where you still have crossbar length but you don't have too much. So if you wanna carry around some fun accessories on your Jetta, maybe you wanna carry around some kayaks or a roof box. more

Yakima Landing Pad 6 Installation - 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon- Video

Yakima Landing Pad 6 Installation - 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon

Andy: Hello everyone, Andy here with etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the installation of our Landing Pad 6 on a Volkswagen Vanagon. Looking at our Landing Pad 6 installed now, we have them paired with the SkyLine Towers. If you needed to remove the lock and load tray here, or let's say we had some bars that are mounted to the top of our camper shell, or on top of our van as seen here, we can just go ahead and push down on the pressure on each side of the tower here. That is what will allow you to move, and install, and re-install your tray or your bars that you have mounted on the top. If you actually aren't using your lock and load tray and you want a cleaner, simpler look with your Leap Pad 6, there are the included covers, and we can just snap that in place, and it gives us a nice fit and finish.As for the installation on this, it did seem like at first it was going to be a pretty intensive task, but I found that it really overall wasn't that bad. more

Thule SquareBar Crossbars Installation -  2014 Volkswagen Passat

Today, on our 2014 Volkswagen Passat, we're going to be testing the Thule SquareBar Roof Rack System. This roof rack system is going to be a great accessory for your Passat. It's going to allow you to haul a ton of different roof rack accessories above your vehicle, whether if it's got bike racks, kayak carriers, or even a cargo box, really anything that can fit, you're going to be able to haul it on this roof rack.This roof rack has three different components to it. Our first one is going to be our 53-inch square bars. These square bars kind of give you the traditional roof rack look, it's kind of how roof racks first started. One thing I want to point out is that with a square bar system, you are going to have a bit more wind noise and drag when you compare it to the wing bar setup that Thule has, but one thing you can do to improve your fuel economy and cut down on that wind noise, is you're going to install a faring on the front crossbar, and that's basically going to deflect the wind and just make it run right over the top of your roof rack system.The middle man right here that's connecting our crossbars to our roof is going to be the Evo clamp feet system. more

Today we have a 2014 Volkswagen Passat and we're going to be doing a test fit on the Seasucker Monkey Bar Roof Rack System, which is part number 298-XX6000.Now this roof rack system has a unique way of attaching to your roof. It doesn't use the traditional clamp system where it comes under our door frame, it doesn't even use six mounting points. It uses these vacuum cups to suction down onto your roof.Now, some people are pretty wary of this system because some people think, "How is that going to stay on the roof" Well, right here I'm going to grab a hold of it and I'm gonna start shaking and you can see that the entire car is shaking, so there's no way those are coming off. If you have a big load on top, this plastic piece right here is more likely to break than these suction cups are to be removed from the roof.It's a very easy installation process. First, we're just going to remove these caps right here. Now this is the rear bar. more

Rhino Rack Roof Rack Review - 2017 Volkswagen Jetta

Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Volkswagen Jetta, we're going to be test fitting the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System consisting of part number RRRS330B, and this is going to be both arms and the fit kit itself all packaged together.The Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories on your Volkswagen Jetta and freeing up space inside your car as well. This can carry anything from bike racks to cargo baskets to some smaller cargo boxes. The bars have an elliptical shape to them, and that coupled with the Vortex Aero strip up at the top will minimize wind noise and drag while you're driving, making your drive a little bit quieter as opposed to the square or round bars, which can produce a little more noise.This simply clamps to the existing door frame on your vehicle, and an added bonus to this particular system is it comes with everything included. You don't have to buy separate kits or separate part numbers. While it has a locking end cap, it also helps protect your T-track accessories as well once they're installed. What you would do is you would move the Vortex Aero strip, cut it to length, place your T-track accessory in and then replace the Vortex Aero strip around it. more
