I can certainly help you out. The hardware used on the Thule Adventurer is # TH04997 that you have referenced. There is a specific order in which all of the parts will go on the crossbars. I have included a picture that shows how all of the parts go together to fit around a crossbar. If the crossbars on your Routon are 3-5/8 inches or less wide then the hardware will fit.
