Video Transcript for Review of Thule Replacement Foam Pads Roof Rack Fairing Locking Ladder Holder - 853-5480

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at these Thule Replacement Foam Pads. Now, this is going to replace four foam pads on your Thule roof rack fairings, and you can see the pads right there as they're cut out there out of that foam. So these pads are going to fit the fairing models that you see there on your screen. And this is also going to replace the foam pads on your Professional rapid-action locking ladder holder as well, and at the bottom of that graphic, I included the model number for that locking ladder holder.

Now, these pads, as you no doubt know, are going to attach to the bottom surface of the fairing support bracket where it touches the vehicle to keep the fairing from scratching the roof of the vehicle. And for a ladder holder application, these are going to attach to the top clamp of the bracket assembly to provide padding for the ladders during transport. Now, these pads are the direct replacement from Thule, so you can trust that these are gonna work just like those original ones you're needing to replace. Maybe one or two of them got damaged or maybe even misplaced. So you're not gonna have to worry about compatibility or fitment issues or anything like that.

Well, that's gonna wrap up our real quick look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

Thanks for reaching out to me! Unfortunately last fall my car was totaled while parked and I had to get rid of it. I sold the roof rack including the product in question to someone else. As far as I know, he is having no issues at all.



by:

Product arrived on time, packaged well. Pads and film are wear items on the Thule fairing or needed again when you get a different car, and etrailer is one of the only places I could find the OEM/stock replacement rubber pads and skin/tape.

I thought I could find some equivalent pads or weatherstripping material from Home Depot/Lowes, but I couldn't ever find the right type of pad that would last more than a couple weeks in the wind/rain/snow. Many other brands of stuff get hard and scratchy on the paint job - so it is worth it to buy the original brand stuff. Very glad etrailer is stocking these items. They seem to have a lot of great product.



by:

These foam pads were bought to replace the ones that came off on the Thule fairings. They work great even after a year. Highly recommended so the roof of your car won't scrape.



by:

Products work great. Etailer representatives were very knowledgeable and helpful in determining the exact parts I needed for my Thule roof rack. I would highly recommend tthem for their quick shipping, helpful insights and their expertise.



by:

If anyone has a fairing on their roof rack, they know that eventually, the pads on the bottom might start to show wear or start peeling off. These replacement pads are perfect. I believe the price is right; however, the shipping cost was more than the price of the pads themselves but they did ship quickly. I guess there is not much control over that. Other than that, very happy with the turnout



by:

the Thule replacement parts I needed to repair the fairing on my daughter's car were exactly what I needed, were reasonably priced and arrived promptly. I found the website easy to use for ordering!



by:

These fit my Thule wind fairing perfectly. It protects my paint my better than the original pads that were deteriorating.



by:

Overall they are holding up but the factory adhesive was not sufficient. I had to re-prep the surface and added some paint safe adhesive otherwise the foam pads simply would fall off.



by:

Great 3M quality replacement for worn/old pads in Thule wind fairing.



by:

I purchased these to replace the worn out and missing pads on my wind fairing. The product is the factory replacements, fit perfectly, shipping was fast. Great business as always.



by:

In case anyone is wondering, these are identical to the pads used for the Thule Fairing. I could not find these pads anywhere else! The price is great too! Shipped and delivered quickly. Thanks!



by:

worked on my wind deflector the Original rubber pad fell off, the hard plastic was tapping the roof, quieted it down.



by:

Exactly as advertised. These work well for replacing the foam pads on the Thule Fairing as well.



by:

I was unable to get the replacement parts needed locally, you shipped exactly what I needed , shipped fast and efficient . Thank you , Joel



by:

Item was exactly as expected. Etrailer communication and follow up is unlike any other company out there. My go to site from now on. Thanks



by:

Just what I ordered, shipping was really fast too. Adhesive on these isn't very strong, be surprised if they last a year



by:

This part was exactly what I needed when the floor model rack was missing a spacer.



by:

These are the exact same pads I put on a decade ago. And I'm sure they will last as long as the originals did. They are very high quality rubber foam with a very strong adhesive backing. Top quality.



by:

Quick shipping! Great products at an amazing price ! Thanks :)



by:

the product was what I expected. met my expectations
