To see if this custom-fit item will work for you please tell us what vehicle you'll use it with.
The flush design keeps the Yakima BaseLine FX crossbars tight to the roofline for a clean, factory style. Nothing sticks out past the sides, so the rack blends in naturally and maintains a low, aerodynamic profile. It looks like part of your vehicle rather than an add-on strapped to the top.
Wind noise can get old fast when you’re hauling gear. These aero-style aluminum crossbars are shaped to help reduce that noise and vibration on the road. The push-down rubber strips fill in the top channels to smooth airflow and keep things quieter while you drive, even when the bars are empty.
This setup is ready for all kinds of adventures—kayaks in summer, skis in winter, or a cargo box for long road trips. The bars are compatible with most bike, watersport, snow, and cargo carriers that mount in the top channels or clamp around the bars. You can mix and match your favorite attachments without needing a new rack system every time you change gear.
Built from aluminum with a 165-lb weight capacity, this integrated crossbar and tower system gives you solid support for everything from paddleboards to camping gear. The sturdy build keeps your load stable while keeping overall weight down for better efficiency on long trips.
When you want peace of mind at trailheads or rest stops, you can install Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately). They secure both the rack and any channel-mount accessories using one key, helping deter theft without changing how easily you use your setup.

Excellent fit and held solid on my '23 Ford Maverick pick-up for the entire canoeing season. When removed this Fall there was no sign they were ever there.
It arrived just fine, and timely. Thank you, e trailer has always had great customer service
From start to finish, the folks at etrailer -- and I spoke to several people there, so it was a consistent corporate vibe -- were fantastic to deal with.
There were delays in getting my product that were on the supplier side and out of eTrailer's control, yet etrailer folks kept me up to date and also worked on a customized solution.
My goal was to be able to carry my surfboard on the roof of our 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe to the beach more than 3 hours away. But the particular model we had had no existing racks, no recessed areas, nothing to fix racks to. Not even the dealer had a solution. I was sh*t out of luck.
But etrailer hooked me up. The racks did take me a while to put on, but most of that time was fine tuning to reduce “hum” while driving. I’m very happy with them.
Thanks to etrailer, I have gone surfing and can go surfing whenever I'd like to.
I have a 10th gen Civic sedan and I was dying to get the perfect roof rack set for my car. At the time of my purchase there was not many visuals of what the rack system looked like on this car.
I purchased the:
•Yakima 50in Jetstream crossbars
•Yakima baseline towers
•bc182 & bc183 clips
•Yakima 46in fairing
Overall I love how it looks on my car! During This COVID pandemic I have been camping more, and this is the perfect foundation! First off, the 46in fairing is the perfect fit for the 10th gen civic! Wind noise is low also with the help of the aerodynamic crossbars. My main concern was the fuel efficiency. On long road trips I still average 38-40 mpg with the rack on. My daily commutes I average 34 mpg without Econ on.
Now that was fast, the go to place to find unique, hard to get and out of stock items for your RV, Camping and Trailering needs. Awesome service and work everyone.
The clips are very easy to install and good fit on my 2020 Ram 1500.
I'm a repeat customer at etrailer several times now, and with good reason. They have provided what I needed in terms of both product and assistance reliably and promptly. The best online supplier I have found.
High quality and all. But my old Yakima rack setup stayed together. The cover was part of a lever to tighten clips. The clips were captured in the assembly. New design the cover and clips need to be completely removed. Need a torque Allen wrench to install every time. Loose parts become Easter egg hunts. Am sure this is to sailer proof mount--that truly is impossible!
Rack is still on the car one year later. Yakima doesn’t have a replacement cover for the tower, which is flimsy.
The racks are easy to remove and reinstall once they are set up. My only complaint is that Yakama only seems to make the base clips in one length. This limits the distance that I can separate the bars to 32 inches. They don't reach under the door sill if I move them further back. If they stamped them out in a few different lengths one would have more options in terms of distance between the bars.
I was converting a roof rack from my Jeep Cherokee (factory rails) to my RAM 2500 truck (naked roof). While I could use my old Jetstream crossbars, I needed new towers and clips for the truck. There was an error in my original order, the representative thought she was sending me two pairs of clips. I understand the mixup because the Clip box said two meaning 2 clips rather than two pair. etrailer sent another pair immediately and waived the shipping. I like customer service is available and knowledgable. I would give them a five if they hadn't mixed up the first order.
Awesome system. Was extremely easy to put together and to space out with the given tools and equipment.
The team is amazing, fast, and responsive! 10/10 will be ordering again from here for all my needs.
I was able to use these clips to mount a roof rack and roof box on my Audi that had a naked roof, and they did the job! I took it on a 1,200 mile road trip and after I returned there wasn’t any damage to the paint, and even though there are rubber inserts on the inside of the clip to prevent scratches I was still a bit surprised.
If you don’t have roof rails on your car, these definitely help!

I was in dire need of finding a cross bar system to mount a 18cu foot Yakima cargo carrier for an upcoming camping trip and etrailer did me an enormous favor by using there website to find the correct system for my 2018 Toyota Camry. I was very pleased that the website confirmed the fitment and provided the whole kit with not just the towers and cross bars but also the clips to mount to a naked roof. So far the mounting was pretty straightforward as long as you follow the directions thoroughly. I drove 5 hours through a wind storm in SoCal with a box mounted and the system held up perfectly fine with no issues or hiccups. 10/10 recommend.
I have a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT which has the non-functional roof side bars. Etrailer.com helped me figure this out and gave me several options that would work. As I already have Yakima bike racks - I wanted to stick with the brand. The price on etrailer.com was the same as Yakima but had free shipping and no tax - awesome.
The Yakima product came with thorough and easy to understand instructions. I was able to get the track installed and working in about an hour - and that was taking it slow and double checking everything. I was very pleased with the fit and finish.
After a test run, there was no wind noise or issue with the rack. Looking forward to taking a road trip next month with it!
I have a 2004 Toyota Camry, my purpose is to purchase this Yakima Baseline System for Rooftop tent. My 23Zero rooftop tent weighs 130 lb, so far it's super solid. I did some minor adjustments based on the shape and level of the roof when mounting it.
