Video Transcript for Thule Podium Roof Rack Installation - 2006 Mazda 5
Alright, today on this 2006 Mazda 5 we're going to do a test fit of Thule Roof Rack System. We're using the Thule Podium Roof-mounted Foot Pack and Thule Square Load bars part no. THLB50, TH460, THKIT3080. Okay to start off our test fit we're going to remove the covers for the 6 points that are on the roof. They basically just slide and we pop them up out of the way. Next we'll go ahead and start the threaded rod that comes with the fit kit from Thule into to the provided threaded holes in the roof.
With a roof rack loosely assembled according to the instructions we'll go ahead and place it onto the threaded rod that we installed into the roof. Now we'll go ahead and tighted down 2 screws that are on the side at the base. Now we'll lock the cross bar to the foot pack. Okay, now we'll go ahead and install our covers. Okay, first half of the roof rack is installed, now we'll go ahead and move on to the second half repeating the same identical steps.
Okay with our roof rack fully installed, we'll go ahead and get ahead and get the measurement on how much height is added to the roof line and this measurement looks like 4 1/2 inches. With that, that will finish it for a test fit of a Thule roof rack system on a 2006 Mazda 5 with a Thule roof rack.
Ask the Experts about this Roof Rack
- Weight Capacity of Roof Rack on a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe Carrying Two Kayaks
- My wife and I just bought a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe that has the factory rails that run front to back. The limit of those is 75 pounds just like on yours, and I remember thinking, wow, that is not very much.
Adding cross bars will not increase the capacity of the rails even if the cross bars themselves might be able to carry more weight. Even if this is the case, you will still be limited to the 75 pounds.
If you were to add the recommended cross bars, # Y00408, and the Towers, # Y00138, or

- The 100 pound capacity on the 2008 Subaru Outback Wagon most likely refers to the system as a whole. In all probability they took the lowest rated component in the system, either the roof, the side rails, or the crossbars, and went by that rating for the whole system. You may be able to find the capacity of each separate component in the owners manual or by contacting a dealership.
But even if you were to add different crossbars like the Thule Load Bars, # THLB50, Thule still states that on

- The Thule load bars can fit your Civic with the correct foot pack and fit kit, but the crossbars on this roof rack do not have the T-slots that accept the T-slot accessories. This roof rack uses square crossbars that will accept most clamp on roof rack accessories.
If you are needing a roof rack that uses crossbars with T-slots I would recommend the Rhino Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack with Aero Crossbars, part # DA118B, and the Rhino Rack Custom DK Clamps, part # DK009. This roof rack will accep

- The 2011 Honda CR-V is going to require Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack, # TH460, and Thule Fit Kit for Podium Style Foot Pack, # THKIT3042. You can still use the same square, 50 inch cross bars, # THLB50, from the 2006 Honda Element.
The Tracker II feet will not fit the CR-V. The two separate vehicles have unique roofs and roof rack requirements and in this case, the Tracker feet cannot be used on both.
The other option for a 2011 Honda CR-V is a Yakima roof rack. I have included a l

- The plastic covers on your 2012 Mazda 5 will just pop out and you can remove them with your hands. In the event one should be difficult, you can use a narrow tool such as a flat screwdriver to pop it off but you will want to be very careful not to scratch or dent the vehicle if you must use a tool.
The covers will not be put back on as long as the roof rack is installed on the vehicle. Make sure that you save the covers should you want to remove the rack.
The Thule rack is a good choice. T

- I spoke with my contact at Thule and they did not have an answer if the sunroof would open with the Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack, part # TH460, and Thule Fit Kit, part # THKIT3080, installed on a 2012 Mazda 5 Grand Touring.
I went out in the warehouse and pulled both Thule parts and put them together to measure what the height of the cross bar would be once installed on your roof. The measurement from the bottom of the foot pack on the fit kit to the bottom of the crossbar is 3-3/4 inc

- The Thule Podium Foot Pack, part # TH460, will use square crossbars and the Thule Podium Foot Pack For Aero Bars, part # TH460R, will use aero design crossbars. Both styles of these towers will accept any of the Thule roof cargo carriers on your 2004 Mazda 3 Sedan. Many of the other brands of cargo carriers (Yakima, SportRack) are also designed to fit on square and aero design crossbars.
The Sears X Cargo Carrier is made by Thule so it should also attach to the two different Thule towers ment

- Yes, the Thule roof rack feet from your 2010 Honda Fit will fit on a 2013 Honda CR-V. The only roof rack that Thule made for the 2010 Honda Fit was the Traverse roof rack which is also compatible with the 2013 CR-V with no existing roof rails.
If your Thule roof rack feet use the square load bars, then the load bars are compatible between the two vehicles as well since they both require 50 inch square bars. If your roof rack feet use the Thule AeroBlade load bars, then you will need the 53 i
