etrailer has a YAKIMA set. This is what my Thule looks like today with an INNO cargo box and a YAKIMA bike rack. I put the stock wheels back on and will change the front to the EU style

Set up looks great. What base rack is that?

All Thule, Thule Aero Bars, Thule mounts. If you noticed, I moved the mounting point for the rack to be more centered.

Can I ask you what the dimensions of your Box are? They fits so nicely and most I encountered are 148cm long, which i guess is longer than yours?

It looks absolutely amazing! Thanks so much for the dimensions, makes sense. Think I will go with the Arjes 133cm (which is pretty equivelent to the INNO.

Final question, what is the with/size of your aerobars?

The roofrack dealer I contacted said he ships them with 120 cm / 47 inch. However, this is wider than the cars original roof and on the picture yours looks closer to 105 cm / 41 inch.

Kind regards, Robert

Thanks for sharing. It doesnt say the width of the Thule bars. i know they are availabe in a wide range. Can you tell anything about that?

 

[Sliderdude]

Both of my bars are 47 inches. Did you see the PDF I sent on the fit kit For the other measurements? I hope this helps.

Aah that suprises me! I checked the pdf en on the second page it outlines the placement of the bars and say 996 cm. So I got confused.

I only rely on Thule - above picture from RackOutfitters looks pretty much like what I use: Thule Wingbars, Thule 774 SRA (Short Roof Adapter), Thule Rapid 754 feets and either Thule Rapid Kit 1856 for glass roof or 1611 for steel roof.
Works perfect - I'm used to hauling kayaks, bikes, ski boxes, recumbents etc - have brought both kayaks and recumbents home from Amsterdam to Copenhagen, Denmark over time on different cars.
This set-up is bomb proof - fairly easy to install and sits with a very firm grip. I'd trust it as much as I trust Thule on any other car I've had.

Forget about rigs where You have to dig the grip-plate in under the rubber of the rear side windows; cumbersome and You still have connection rods between bars - and I've seen user reports telling that it's easy to scratch your car during mounting (

I have bought the thule stated in this post. It’s a proper solid setup. Couldnt be happier!! Had to get the bits off of eBay. The Fiat 500 feet and hangers were about £140 (roughly half the cost) but everything else was eBay cheaper so £260 in total. Solid as a rock. Fits so well.
