Hi everyone. It's Evangeline here at Etrailer and today we'll be taking a look at our Inno roof rack system with the Inno through feet, the 54 inch long Inno arrow cross bars, and our custom fit kit for your 2020 Ford Edge. So you have your Ford Edge and you want to carry different things on top of it. So if you are going out for adventures, maybe you want to put a bike rack or even a kayak on top, or if you're just going on a road trip, you might want to be able to carry more luggage or have more storage space, and you want a roof basket or a roof box. Whichever of those you want, the first thing you need is a roof rack system. So this is the Inno roof rack system with the through feet and the 54 inch long crossbars.
This gives you a little bit more height clearance compared to your low-profile crossbars. Gives you a bit more length compared to your flush crossbars, not as much as if you wanted the wider version, we have it here as well at Etrailer. So we're gonna take a look at this specific system in this specific configuration, just to see if it's a right fit for your adventures, whatever you want to carry, and your 2020 Ford Edge. So the first thing about this system is how tall it is. So compared to, let's say, the Inno flush feet, which is more low-profile and sits closer to your vehicle.
This gives you a bit extra height when it comes to your accessories, it's gonna be helpful. So I'll take some measurements with the glass roof down. We have it measuring from the top of the roof to the bottom of the crossbars, it's gonna sit about three and five eighths inches of clearance. So that's gonna be helpful for if you have accessories that have clamps, clearance for that. If you want to carry your skis and your snowboards, you'll want to have enough clearance for those bindings.
Now, the height added to the top of your roof is going to be about four and three quarter inches from the top of your glass roof to the top of your crossbars. Now you do have a slight slope on your Ford Edge's roof. So that will be a little bit different depending on where you look, though if you want the most clearance, go as far out of your crossbars as you can get. One thing about the Inno Crossbar System is it looks really, really good. You have this sleek black powder coat finish.
This is made of aluminum, which gives it strength. It has 165 pound weight capacity, but also light weight. This is their arrow bars, which means compared to your traditional round or square crossbars, which can be noisy on the road, this is a bit more aerodynamic, reduces wind drag and wind noise. A cool thing about modern aerobars is they now have key slots or key tracks. So when you have things mounted that are T track compatible, you just push this down and mount it, which is a lot better than let's say Rhino-Rack we have to cut the different strips or Tully, which tends to come apart, this is very easy to use. Highly recommended if you are concerned about clearance around your bars. With this having through feet, you do get a little bit of extra overhang, but not much for this configuration. Measure from the end of the tower to the end of the end cap, it sits at about one inch of overhang, which isn't that much. I highly recommend if you do want overhang, taking a look at the longer crossbars. Holding our crossbars up are Inno through feet. So these have locking cores in them. And as you get them as a set, you get two keys that can access all four tower doors or tower caps. So once you have that unlocked, you can now access your roof rack system, mount and dismount it, and then when you're ready to go, you just pop this back in, tighten that down, and that provides you a nice security measure. And finally you have your custom fit kit. So make sure to use our Etrailer fit guide for whatever vehicle you have, because we have the kit fully compiled together with the different things you need, since you have different hooks and you have different pads, notice how they conform to the grooves of your vehicle. You want to make sure you get the right fit for you and then install them properly. So let's take a look at that install process as I guide you through it, just to see if that's something you can do on your own. So the install process for your Inno roof rack system is going to be a little bit involved because it involves a custom fit kit. But that's what this video is for. I'm gonna guide you through the process, explain what the different numbers on your pads, as well as your hooks mean, and then help you get your fit kit, your towers, and your crossbars fully assembled on your Ford Edge. So I already installed the rear crossbar and we are going to install the front crossbar together. So the fit kit for your front crossbar is gonna be the pads with a number 425 on it, and then the hook with a number 121 on it. So we're gonna set up the towers first with the pads for the bottom, so I'm gonna get the 425 one. I'm going to have it where we have our groove facing away from the front of the tower, and just pop it in. Now we're gonna put the towers in our crossbar, but we have to set up the crossbar first. So you're gonna get a plate that looks like this, have it where you have your notch facing outside your crossbar, slide this tray through, and just pop this in from underneath. Once that's in there, you just slide the full silver weight tray through, and then you have this button here, press that button and continue until you stop. Then get your tower with the tray on the inside. You're just gonna line it up. Notice how you have those different brackets, as well as that bolt, so that bolt is gonna fit right on top and then you push in on this tower, see how that just pushes in, as you slide that through. Now how far out do you put your towers before you tighten it down You're gonna have a middle point right over here in the center of your crossbar, and then you're gonna measure out. So for our front crossbar, it's gonna be from the center to the front of the crossbar, 22 and five eighths inches. So I'm gonna measure for that and move the tower accordingly. Once you have it where you need it to be as per the measurements, you can tighten it down with this tool right here. With this in place, you can now put it on your roof. So very gently set it as far onto your roof as you can, and then get it lined up with your measurements later. So our measurement for the front crossbar is going to be measured from the door, and it's gonna be eight and three quarter inches. So just move the center of your crossbar and line it up with that measurement. That's also how we got our measurement for our rear crossbars. With both of them lined up, you're then going to be able to attach the hook. So I left this bolt in our tower and I have to take that one off first. With that out, we can now fit the hook on top, just like that, and then use this bolt to tighten it down. So just hand thread it through first. Once you have the other side with this hook partially tightened on to, you're then gonna use the torque tool included with this kit to tighten it down fully. Now you're gonna have to hear for that click, do it a second time. And then you know it's fully tightened down. And with this fully secured, you can know that even if you slam a door on it, you'll be okay. The final step, once everything is tightened down, is to put the end caps on both of your crossbars, those just pop right in, and your towers. So make sure it's unlocked, fit it from underneath first, and then flip upwards, and then lock it into place. Once that's secure, you are done with the install. So my personal thoughts about this roof rack system is if you are going for low profile, I highly recommend maybe getting the Inno flush feet version instead. It sits a little bit lower to your vehicle, provides a little less overhanging yes, but it's also very low profile. But if you are concerned about the height of your equipment, so you have extra bulky clamps and need that extra clearance, the Inno through feet is definitely the way to go. I do recommend getting the kit that has the 57 inch long crossbars though, compared to the 54 inch long. I think these are a little too short. I would easily use a couple more inches of overhang, but that's also personal preference. It is up to you with whatever you are carrying and what fits for you. One recommendation I do have though, is picking up the Moki door step. This is what I use all throughout the video, just to give myself a little extra height and traction as I tighten things down. Definitely recommended, especially if you're carrying around kayaks or other things that need straps, because those will help you do that safely. And that was the look here at our Inno roof rack system with the Inno through feet, the 54 inch long crossbars, and the custom fit kit for your 2020 Ford Edge..

These Through feet help you mount 2 Inno Aero crossbars to your vehicle's naked roof to create an extended-length roof rack. Locking covers secure system to roof.Has worked great for transporting my fishing Kayak as well as small loads of lumber. It has worked fine for about a dozen and a half boards at a time or a couple of sheets of plywood. Just make sure that you have a good way to strap them down as well as maybe a rubber mat to help hold everything in place. The noise from it on the high way can be a lot but certainly not as bad as some that I have heard. I figure that anything on the outside of a vehicle like that will produce some noise.
This kit does not fit well. All measurements have been double and triple checked down to the millimeter. The lock on the covers interfere with the hooks. You have to apply so much pressure to get it to close that it makes the rack come loose. Not very satisfied
I bought these as part of a kit with 60" Aero bars and the appropriate kit for my 14 Flex. I spent probably an hour and a half double checking my measurements and getting them torqued down properly. I spaced the bars on top of the car just a little wider than proscribed because I was planning on carrying 4x8 plywood, and it looked better to my eye. One thing to watch for: The instructions for the car-specific kit (in my case INK263) show the foot spacing measurements for a square bar, and the measuring point for these feet and Aero bars is different. That measurement point is indicated in the instructions for the feet, not the kit. Same numbers, just different reference point. Otherwise, they look good and are rock solid.
worked as expected, I used them to carry my hobie outback kayak (about 100lbs) on my Honda Civic 2016 Coupe (2 doors). They worked with no problem so far (1 year) even under high speed like 70mph.
We recently purchased 2 kayaks & Thule roof racks from our local outdoor store.
After waiting 2 weeks for our roof racks and J bars to come in we found that the Thule racks did not fit our 2017 Lincoln MKX and they didn't make any racks that would. The vehicle does not have roof racks and has a moon roof.
After a couple of days searching the internet we discovered etrailer.com. We found the Inno roof racks, but still was not sure they would work. We spoke to a repesenative and he assured us that the racks we chose would fit and the Thule J bars we did return would also work. As you can see by the photos 2 days later we were happy Kayakers.
Great racks. High quality parts. Fit perfectly. Went together easily.
I did a lot of searching before selecting this rack for my Durango RT (no factory roof rails). It is easy to reinstall once the initial process is followed, I marked my doorjambs with a sharpie and it is easy to set up. Great product!
Installation was a little tricky but once the "feet" were attached to the roof and the bars properly spaced, everything wrapped up very well.
There is no noticeable wind noise with these installed.
Racks were perfect for my Acura MDX. They fit like a glove and I have used them several times.
Noticed box was taped up more then usual, found other manuals that was not specifically for this, and also found one of the feet already had been mounted as there was scratches on the plastic and metal parts

Awe shoot, that could be from our demo and install teams! We do not sell returned or used items. However, our demo team takes our product and does a temporary installation in order to get videos and pictures of the item in use. It is our policy to make sure that the item is still in good or new condition before it gets put back on the shelf for sale.
One was extremely hard to get on compared to the others (not sure if it had some rough machining or something), but once all we’re on, all was good
Once I realized which bar was the front one and which was the back it was a fairly easy install. Since the measurements for the foot placement were wrong in the instructions I would suggest not tightening the feet all the way to the bars until you put it on the car. It would have been nice if both sets of rubber pads were the same, with the tunnel hook, and if they had adhesive backing to avoid losing them. I added 2 sided tape.
Started assembly last summer and finally completed installation this spring. Directions took a lot of attention to detail but were adequate. Rack went on car securely and looks great. Have attached kayak rack and a roof pod and both worked flawlessly. Would definitely recommend.
Seem to be well made for the price. I didn't realize that they came with locks so that was a pleasant surprise. Easy installation.
etrailer was the only vendor who had the custom fit roof rack feet I needed for my vehicle. I was trying to put a roof rack onto a Dodge Durango SRT...not a typical vehicle for this accessory! I looked everywhere for a suitable roof rack and thought I was settling by ordering the Inno kit from etrailer. I could not have been more wrong! I am so happy with the purchase!
These feet are easy to use and go well wit the Inno system. I was worried since my car did not come with any roof racks, but this is the solution to haul things on my roof. They work well and are very secure.
These are made perfectly for your vehicle. They are very secure when combined with the other Inno products. No worries of the rack system coming off. Using them to transport kayaks using kayak holders.
thanks to Adam for help and competent approach. Adam listened impeccably and in the shortest possible time helped to deliver the goods I needed
Perfect fit.

Still looks like new after one year and 25 outings.
I have had countless bike racks over the years and this is by far the best system I have ever had. Fits like a glove on my F150. Easy to install, looks great and the bikes do not move when on the roof.
There work great and were easy to install. e-trailer rocks and so does Justin.
Easy to mount and use. Very sturdy aswell. Measurements are a bit off on width adjustment.
Tule and Yakima did not have a rack for my Nissan murano. So it was a blessing to find the immo rack. It seems like it can fit any car model. It's strong and secure. I feel my equipment will be safe with this rack.
I’ve had the system in place for over a year now and haul dual kayaks often! I love it! The only thing I wish I could change is the wind noise that’s comes with it. But I’m sure with any rook rack system you get that.
Instructions were a bit tough at first as each box had their own instructions and you needed all 3 boxes to complete the setup, yet after over coming that, it was a breeze to put together and they are wonderful. Well worth the money.

I would like to help you install the roof rack on your 2004 Toyota Avalon. Would you be able to send over pictures to show the fit issues with the locks and the hooks.
