Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Honda CR-V, we're going to be test fitting the Yakima JetStream roof rack system. This is going to be consisting of part numbers Y00425, these are the JetStream crossbars. Part number Y00148, these are the SkyLine Towers, and they kind of snap into place with our landing pads. And the landing pads are going to be part number Y00245. This is specifically for the Honda CR-V.It attaches to two pre-attachment points on the actual flush mounted side rails of your CR-V, and these bars are designed to work with a wide variety of accessories. This helps you put anything you don't want inside the vehicle, outside, or just to free up a little bit more space if you need to.
It can work with bike racks, cargo baskets, or cargo boxes, and the general shape of the bars is going to be an aerodynamic shape. That's going to help cut down wind noise and drag while you drive.Moving our end cap here, this also works with T-Track accessories, but unlike the others, you actually just push down the strip at the top here so the T-Track accessory just slides in there that way. A lot of the other styles out there, you'll have to remove the strip, cut it to length, and kind of go through a hassle to get this installed, and this eliminates that for you.At the ends here, we do have these plastic locks that can be taken out and removed, and replaced with the Yakima SKS lock system, so you can secure this to your vehicle and also make inaudible 00:01:28 with your accessories that you're hauling. And, once everything is finished with your trip, these just can pop out of place by opening the ends and we have these plastic pieces that fit on top here, so you don't have to remove the mounts, and they're ready to go for next time.Now that we've shown you how this looks here, let's go ahead and show you how it actually installs. We have our rear bar partially assembled on our table here.
We'll go through the process of installing it onto our vehicle. We have the bar and the towers applied on one side, so our next step is we're going to go to the tower here as well as the fit kit for our actual bar, and install that on the other side.Starting with our plastic piece here that just pushes in place on top of our tower until you hear a light click. Then we'll take our metal piece here, which attaches to this screw on the inside. Then you tighten that down with the included tool. You're going to hear two or three audible clicks once this is done, like so.
Then we can slide this into the bottom of the bar. Then our final step is putting in our end cap.Now we can move on to our actual mounting point here. We'll take the padded portion and these points here will fit into the holes in the bottom. Just kind of match up. Then just push them into place like so.
Then we'll take the screws and the flat washers and install them onto our fixed mounting points onto our flush mount side rails. Find our points, and find the proper configuration, too, that works best for your vehicle. We'll get these finger tightened first. Then we use the tightening tool and finish them off.Now we can take our bar and set it into place as well, making sure that they're open all the way. We'll set them into our cradles. Our landing pads, I should say. And then we'll get the crossbar overhang figured out as well. You're going to want to make sure that that's even on both sides. Have to loosen it up just a little bit. And try not to do that. There we go. All right, that looks good. Our final step is to tighten down the bolt in the center here. This is going to tighten up the tower to our bar. That's done. Close this up, and that'll lock it to the landing pad, and repeat this on the driver's side as well.Next, I'm going to give you a couple quick measurements here that'll help you out in regards to the height that it's going to add to your vehicle. We're going to start in the center of the roof and measure to the bottom and the top of the bar. From the center to the bottom, it's going to be about five inches. From the center to the top, it's going to be about five and seven eighths inches, so that's adding quite a bit to the top of your roof, so keep that in mind when you have your bike racks and your cargo baskets fully loaded when you're pulling it into your garage. And this roof rack system does have 165 pounds of carrying capacity once installed, but you always want to double check with your vehicle's manual and go by its recommendations, and go by the smaller of the two numbers. And there you have it for the Yakima JetStream roof rack system on our 2017 Honda CR-V.

These multipurpose, galvanized steel crossbars supply the backbone for your aftermarket roof rack system. Works with accessories that clamp around the bars. Pair with Yakima towers, fit kit, and RoundBar SL Adapter to create a complete roof rack.Works perfectly. I am always impressed that Yakima continues to make parts for the "old roundbars" since they have since moved on to the superior JetStream bars.
In the confusing world of roof racks, the etrailor site had a locator tool that made it easy to identify the correct landing pads and towers for my vehicle.
Fit our Subaru Forester perfectly. Install was a breeze. For the money I wish they came with the core locks.
Excellent selection of rack parts. Very useful installation videos help when choosing between products. Easy ordering process. Quick delivery.
I ordered the Yakima roof rack, with the Hullyrollers for the back crossbar and the Mako saddles for the front crossbar to use with my kayak. It arrived just like they told me and I put them on my car the eveningit arrived. Got to finlly use the roof rack on June 22 to go out kayaking and it worked great. Only thing is I did not know about the air reflector piece for the front crossbar. Now I will be ordering it to help with the wind noise.
Great rack, go on fast, easy to install and work well on my VW TDI wagon. Care has to be given and follow the instructions for the install to what type of rails you have. Works great carrying the VW luggage carrier and plan on using it to carry kayaks as well. Just have not decided what kayak rack type to get yet.
I've attachec a few pictures of the Yakima rack on my Audi Q7. It took a few attempts to find the right combination of attachments, but in the end, the pin attachments work best with the access points on the factory flush-mount rails. Great product!!!!!
necessary for using the widest cross bar option (78"). East to install
Very nice quality towers. Very heavy duty! They have a cool "snap" on / off mechanism for quick removal and installation.
roof racks showed up in great condition, and showed up as one package.... I should have ordered the J racks from here but I found them cheaper locally so Thule J racks compliment the whole setup and i am just about ready to hit the water :)
Kimberly has shown that great customer service is not dead! etrailer and Kimberly are great to work with and have earned my business and will always be the 1st and last place I look for my rack+ needs!
As for the application, I needed more space to fit my cargo box on top of my 4Runner TRD Pro’s rack. I came up this this… Thank you!
The installation of this rack system went very well, all of the instructions were easy to read and use. I have attached some pictures of our installation. The vehicle is a 1994 Honda Accord EX four door sedan
Everything from etrailer is timely and of good quality! The Yakima crossbars are no exception - they are indestructible.
Roof Rack 2008 Saturn Astra The roof rack arrived one day early...The packaging was excellent and the quality of the product more than met my expectations. The instructions made the insulation very easy. It took less than 45 minutes to install the unit complete.
One quick phone call and Gwendolyn figured out exactly what I needed for our new car to use my old Yakima rack.
I had cross bars and landing pads on my Jeep Grand Cherokee. I bought these to put on my wife’s new Grand Cherokee L. They were extremely easy to install and now I can easily move the roof rails between the two vehicles. They are a great product as is most of Yakima’s products. I highly recommend them.
You guys provide great products and excellent customer service.
Thanks
Everything arrived as promised and earlier than expected just installed. Looks like it will do everything I need it to which is haul around paddleboards. So far so good!
Great product and very easy to install! I called in to put my order in due to not trusting myself in getting one that fits my car. Jessica W. Was beyond professional and helpful in the process. She went also well above her position and tracked my order and sent additional information. Couldn’t be happier with the product and customer service!
These crossbars were easy to install and adjust. Be sure to get all the pieces you need. There is no mention of the Landing Pads necessary to use these.
We got a Yakima Roof Rack system with locks and fairing for a "lime squeeze metallic" (Green...) 2011 Ford Fiesta 5dr Hatchback. Received the package yesterday and set it up within about an hour.
great service
Kit worked perfectly on my 2021 Subaru Forester. The whole install took 30 minutes. Never been disappointed with etrailer.
I have been using Yakima racks for around 40 years and have never had any problems. However, I am amazed at the price increases over the years. Etrailer prices were by far lower than most. Overall, a very excellent purchase.
Have been rocking my Yakima rack from etrailer.com for a year now. I am using rack in conjunction with a Tepui tent. Once I added the air deflector, I would say it's the perfect setup. The Yakima gives more clearance over the factory rack, so I was able to get my hands under it to secure the tent hardware. If you're thinking of upgrading your factory rack, I would not hesitate to use etrailer.com
