This setup keeps things looking clean and tight on top of your vehicle. The flush design means the crossbars don’t extend past the feet, giving it a streamlined, from-the-factory look. When you’re driving or parking, it blends right in instead of sticking out. It’s a subtle, low-profile rack that looks like it belongs there.
Roof racks can get loud at speed, but these aero-style crossbars are built to help keep things quiet. The aerodynamic shape reduces wind drag while the push-down rubber strips in the top channels help cut down on noise and vibration as you drive. You get smoother airflow and less of that constant whistling sound during highway trips.
No matter what kind of trip you’re planning, this rack can handle the gear. The aero-style bars work with both channel-mount accessories and clamp-on attachments. Whether you’re hauling kayaks, cargo boxes, or bike carriers, it’s ready to connect with most universal cargo, water, snow, and bike carriers so you can keep using the equipment you already have.
The system installs directly to raised rails for a solid hold that stays put mile after mile. Lockable leg covers deter theft of both the rack and any channel-mounted accessories, so you can leave your setup in place when parked overnight. The complete system includes two aluminum aero crossbars and four flush feet for a sturdy foundation that supports up to 165 lbs—just be sure to follow your vehicle’s maximum roof load rating.
The aluminum build keeps weight down without sacrificing strength. It’s tough enough for long hauls with heavy gear yet resists rust and wear from weather exposure. Finished in black, it looks sharp and stays reliable trip after trip under its limited lifetime warranty.

Hi, I'm Matt with etrailer. Today we're gonna be talking about inner roof rack with the flush rails on our 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE. Now this can be a great option if you're looking for something that's just gonna have more of a clean look because we're not gonna have a lot of overhang that you get with your typical roof rack. Now roof racks, it would be my choice for that external storage area because you could go with a hitch and put a hitch carrier on it or even connect it to a trailer. The only downside to that is that's gonna take up a lot larger of a footprint. So if you're trying to get into those really tight areas, or just tire areas in general, it'll be really difficult to do that.
Now with the roof rack, we're gonna be using the same real estate that's already available to us, just making it a little bit taller. And that's why I like them a little bit more. And what's nice about these ones today is it has a lot of built-in features already on them so you don't have to worry about any tools on hands. And if you don't like any of those crossbars that have the overhang to them, this is gonna be a really good choice for you. But let's start off with talking about the components that come with this kit.
So this is gonna come in two pieces. We're gonna have our arrow crossbars and we're gonna have the tower itself. Now each one of these crossbars are gonna be different lengths. We're gonna have the longer ones up front and the shorter ones in the back. Now we are gonna have this built-in T channel with this built-in weather strip.
That's gonna keep out any wind and any debris to make sure it doesn't get obstructed and reduce wind noise. The shape of it is also gonna reduce wind noise. And this is gonna go right into our towers right here. If I remove this, typically you can have this locked into place, and if you unlocked it and you can see what's kind of happening underneath here. And what's really neat about this is we're gonna have this knob here.
You can tighten this down just by pulling on this. So you don't need any external tools that do this, that's why I like it personally. And we are gonna have this indicator right here telling us which is gonna be your left and your right side. The left being your driver, right being the passenger. Underneath there we're gonna have this bar that is connected to this rubber strap. That's what you're tightening down when you tighten down this knob here. And that's what I like about it is that it's gonna give you full coverage of your rails, giving you really good hold. So let's talk about how it's gonna look up here. So you'll notice my crossbars are pretty far apart. I put them this far just to show you that we can get a pretty wide spread. And in the center you'll notice I already have my sunroof open and you can tell this gets pretty high. So if you do have a roof rack on here, a lot of times it will make contact with this, especially with this type of bar. So the biggest thing to note there is if it is kind of high, especially on the front side, since we still can open up our sunroof since it does kind of have this slight bow to it. Now here you just need to make sure if you have any clamps, just make sure they're not gonna make contact with your roof. Or in some cases just use this T channel at the very top of it so you can completely avoid that. Now the next measurement I want to talk about is gonna be the total distance it adds to your roof. This is gonna be a little bit under three inches. So that's still gonna be very compact. But I still recommend just taking the total measurement on your roof. So get your vehicle, your crossbars, and anything on top of that. So you know if you can make it under a spot anywhere like a garage. And this is gonna have a pretty decent weight capacity. But what I would recommend is finding out what your roof is rated for and then go from the lowest rated component so you don't damage anything. Now in my opinion, I think this is a solid choice because again, it's not gonna have that overhang so it looks a little bit more clean up here. And if you're looking for something that has everything already integrated into it, it's probably be my top choice because most roof racks out there don't have lock cores already installed. And since that tightening tool is integrated into it, we don't have to worry about losing it. And speaking of tightening it down and installing it, I can show you what that process looks like now. So the first thing we wanna do is make sure we have all our parts. You'll notice I'm missing a few because I already have my front crossbar installed. Now what we are gonna have is one crossbar first side and they are gonna be the same installation process. Now these are gonna be two different lengths, so we wanna make sure we have the right one to the right side. And we're gonna have our tower and the end cap that goes along with it. Now these will have a left and right side. I'll tell you which one is which once we get it over there. And then on top of that I recommend having a tape measure so we can make sure everything is even. So let's put these towers into place. Now the easiest way I find to do this is to put the crossbar in the orientation of your roof. So let's say I'm behind my vehicle right now, we wanna make sure the thicker side is facing forward, the thinner side behind us. And we wanna make sure we have the left tower on the driver's side. Once we do that, we wanna have the right tower on the passenger side. We can flip this over. And from here, I'm gonna have these tabs that'll go into this opening. If you don't see that opening, it's probably in an orientation like this. To put it in there, just press down that rubber square till it hides all of that. And then, put this little tabs here with that opening. Should kind of fall into place. Push on the side of it and it locks it like that. We wanna make sure that opening is facing on the outside. Once we're done with that, repeat that on the other side. And we can put it on our roof now. We wanna make sure this is gonna be the correct one for the correct location. So your shorter crossbar is gonna go in the backside, while your longer one goes on the front side. You are gonna have a little bit of play here, so I could put it at the very far end or I could put it a little bit forward. For now, I'm just gonna put it at the very far end to show you that we can reach all the way across here. Just get it to kind of line up with the raised rails. I guess I'll put mine at the very back of it, just like that. Once you make sure both sides are in the correct locations, we can grab this rubber strap and put that bar on these hooks. If that feels too tight, just loosen this up by turning this tab here and put it into place, then tighten it. And I'd recommend just to tighten it enough we have a little resistance. Once you have that little resistance, go to the other side and repeat the same process, then go back and forth until this is all the way tightened down. And you'll be able to tell if it's all the way tight if it feels just really snug, you can't really get it to tighten down anymore. I'll try to get it to push, point down the down position if I can. That makes putting the end cap a little bit easier on. And now again, you can kind of see this L right here. That's letting us know this is the left hand side to the left hand tower. We're gonna have the left end cap, it's also gonna have an L inside of it so you can match them up and not get them mixed up. Once you're ready, put that into place and then you can just give it a global shake test, make sure it's not gonna go anywhere, load it up, and then take it out for a ride. But that'll complete our installation. If you guys have any other questions, let us know here at etrailer. And again, I'm Matt, and thanks for watching.

Inno makes the best products; high quality & easy to use
Arrived damaged after waiting 40 days for this item that was listed as in stock but was not! Then told it was in that it finally got to them and it was shipping. Then no ship! Called and was told it was there but they can not find it. Stocked in the wrong area! Finally received it. The damage on the cross bar was packed damaged. No damage to the box! A little unhappy.
Shipping was fast, items came in perfect shape
Great Roof Rack! Looks very nice on my Ford Focus! Installing a rod pod soon! Quick Delivery! Outstanding product!
Great looking and easy on and off for adding accessories. The keys work easily as well.
Good racks, one year of frequent use and no problems. The instructions could have been clearer, but once I figured it out it was easy to install.
Easy to install. Instructions are almost perfect. Watching the video really helped, especially the tip of laying the rails down and then marking the trim. I used a hacksaw to cut the trim, really easy. Thank you guys for an awesome product. I hope it is durable, it feels solid, but only time will tell.
Fast shipping, great customer service and easy to install
These are held on by rubber straps. Not worth $[XX]
1 Year of use and the Inno rails still solid - stealth - and quiet. Very easy to mount/remove as needed. Perfect choice in a saturated market of options. etrailer best out there for info - research - products- and price!
First off, eTrailer Rocks! The website, the reviews, the product tutorials, the fast shipping. This is my second purchase and i am now a loyal customer.
The Inno crossbars are exactly what i wanted for my 2013 Murano; the installation was simple thanks to the video instructions from eTrailer--and i'm very pleased with the fit, and the overall look.
Very happy with purchase. This third rack system I have purchased ( for different vehicles) and first Inno system. Seems every bit the quality of my Yakimas and like the attachment portion to roof rails, everything is coated so no possibility of scratching paint on car. Delivery was very quick and Etrailer price matched Amazon!
I received my innov and installed it my 2017 nissan rogue and is so easy to install it & the quality of this product is 5 star..
