 "Dented my roof" 2009-06-23
By H. KIM
I have a BMW 3 series sedan, and for this car, I needed to buy the control towers and landing pad base(11). I followed the instructions carefully and had the rack installed, but when I removed the rack for a car wash, I realized that the roof was dented in. Apparently I had tightened the bolts too much. The landing pad was a rubber piece that compresses as the bolt is tightened, and it's difficult to tell visually when the rigid plastic control tower behind it is touching the roof. Also, the resistance of the bolt during tighting did not vary that much - the bolt kept on turning on without much effort. The estimate for repair = $2000.

 "Fits well on 07 CRV" 2009-05-30
By Scott Stevenson
Install is bit of a slog, but that's same for any rack mount on the CRV. You have to work the nuts on and off the threaded studs on the vehicle roof to clear off the paint on them. Then after putting the landing pad on tightening the nuts is pretty stiff with the allen wrench provided. They look good though and have a nice cover for when towers/bars are not in use. Towers snap right in and are solid.

 "Best system for a vehicle with no factory rack" 2009-03-17
By Scott Ehardt (Atlanta, GA USA)
This rack (or Thule's similar one) is the best option I'm aware of for vehicles that don't come with a roof rack. A few things to keep in mind:

- You have to drill holes in your roof

- This part (the track) never comes off once you put it on



Pluses:

- Professional look

- Secure (strong)

- Package comes with drill bit & silicone sealant

- Flexible enough to conform to most roofs. I installed these on a Prius; if they fit that shape, they should fit most vehicles. I pre-bent the rails to reduce stress on the bolts.

- The expanding nuts (PlusNuts) are great; they go in easily and securely



Minuses

- No fit guides for current vehicles

- Many current vehicles have curtain airbags, so you'll want to peek under the headliner to find them & not drill into them. I didn't have to drop the headliner, only peek under the edges.

- You have to be comfortable with tools (drill, measuring tape, etc. ), or you'll make a mess

 "Solid as a rock" 2009-02-04
By J. Nettles (Weston, WV USA)
This results in a much nicer rack set-up than raingutter or door mount. It's a more permanent solution, yet the tracks aren't that noticeable once the rack is removed (which is quick and simple). These tracks are more flexible and have better attachment hardware that cheaper alternatives (plusnuts vs. screws). To be fair, Thule also seems good. I was nervous about drilling holes in the roof, but it wasn't that bad. You do need to follow instructions carefully, and realize that recommended hole locations aren't available for all vehicles (I found out that right over the door column isn't the best choice). A depth limiter (other than tape on the bit) is important, and a drill guide (to keep the bit from sliding and perpendicular) would be helpful. Even with an indentation from a punch, the bit still can slide. The end result - a 3000 mile trip with a fully loaded hardshell cartop carrier, no leaks, and completely solid. I'm very pleased with these tracks, and with Yakima customer service.
