Fit Kit Needed for Thule Square Bar Roof Rack on a 2015 Lexus CT 200h

Question:

What fit kit do I need for the TH460R Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack for Square Load Bars? I have a 2015 Lexus CT, which means no existing rails or crossbars. The Thule website says KIT1426, but it says it only works on 480 foot pack, and I have the 460 foot pack?? Let me know, thanks!

If you already have the 47" Thule SquareBars # TH712200 then the only other parts you need to complete the roof rack for your 2015 Lexus CT 200h are the Traverse Foot Pack # TH480R and the Fit Kit # THKIT1636.

Since your CT 200h doesn't have pre-installed fixpoints for a roof rack you actually need to use the Thule Traverse Roof-Rack Foot Pack # TH480R. The Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack # TH460 is designed to work with vehicles that have the pre-installed fixpoints so it won't work for your application unfortunately.

The Thule Fit Kit # THKIT1426 that you references only fits 2006 - 2013 Lexus IS 250, IS F-4, and IS 350 Sedan models so it isn't compatible with your CT either.
