Rhino Rack Roof Rack Review - 2016 Honda Fit- Video
Today on our 2016 Honda Fit, we're going to be doing a test fit on the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack System. We're going to be using part numbers RRVA118B-2 for the Aluminum 46" Long Black Crossbars and part number RRRLKVA for the 2500 Series Leg Kit, and finally part number DK438 for the Fit Kit specifically for our Honda Fit. This Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack System is going to allow you to carry your roof-mounted accessories, such as your bike racks, kayak carriers, ski carriers, cargo boxes and baskets. It has an aerodynamic design that's going to help cut down on wind noise when you're on the road, and it's also going to add a sleek look to your Honda Fit. All four of the 2500 Series legs feature padding, so you don't have to worry about it harming and scratching the roof of your vehicle. The hooks here are also padded, so that when it grips the inside of the top you don't have to worry about it harming it. The crossbars themselves are made out of an aluminum construction, and they're lightweight, so they're going to allow you to maximize your roof's weight capacity, though you'll want to be sure to check your vehicle's owner's manual to see how much it can carry. Now, we'll show you how easy it is to get installed. I've already got our front one installed. more
