Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars Installation - 2016 Volvo XC90- Video

Zach: Hey guys, Zach here at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Wingbar Evo-style raised rail roof rack system on our 2016 Volvo XC90. I have the black bars installed today, but it's also available in silver if you want it to match the raised rails. This is going to be a really nice, good roof rack system if you're looking to get some accessories on top of your roof, whether that's a bike rack, a cargo box, or maybe a kayak carrier.Thule does a really good job of doing testing and getting really good engineering to make sure that this works really nice and also has a really nice aerodynamic shape, because when you add something to your roof, you're going to get wind noise, you're going to get drag, and they do their best to try to eliminate that as much as possible. Now, regardless of what you put up here, no matter how aerodynamic it is, you're going to hear it. But when we've driven around with these bars before, we don't notice it over the radio, we don't get the whistling sound that the older style bars used to have. more

Now, the raised side rails do extend towards the front of the vehicle past the sunroof, but we're going to place the front bar behind the sunroof. With the bar in position, we can pop off the end caps and bring the rubber-coated steel straps around the underside of the bar. We'll then hook it into the connection point and use the included tensioning tool to tighten down the bolts to secure the straps.
