These galvanized steel crossbars are built to handle real gear. With a weight capacity of 165 lbs, they give you a solid base for hauling kayaks, cargo boxes, or camping gear. The 48" long bars provide plenty of space while the 1-1/8" diameter keeps them sturdy under load.
Long trips mean exposure to rain, sun, and road grime. The black vinyl coating on these crossbars helps protect the steel underneath from rust and wear. You get years of reliable use without worrying about corrosion taking over.
The BaseLine towers and custom fit kit give you a stable connection on your naked roof. Everything locks into place with Yakima’s Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately), so you can add theft deterrence without extra hassle.
RoundBars have been a go-to for decades because they work with tons of accessories that clamp around the bar. Whether it’s a kayak cradle, ski rack, or cargo basket, you can attach what you already own and hit the road without needing specialty mounts.
This setup comes ready to go with 2 RoundBars, 4 BaseLine towers, 4 adapters, and the custom fit kit made for your vehicle’s naked roof. Everything fits together cleanly so you can get your gear up top and start your next trip sooner.

I bought both the roof rack and the cage from etrailer! Put everything on myself...easy peasy!
Really easy to install & work as specified. So happy with the customer support/service at etrailer.
Great UX for finding the options matching my car, and the baseline towers work great. Simple straightforward site, will plan to use them again when needed.
For those also buying crossbars for cars without roof rails, recommend taking a silver sharpie and marking the placement of the crossbars on the weather seal at the top of the door openings. Makes putting them back on way less of a hassle if you don’t want them on 24/7.
Excellent service and fast shipping.
Roof rack on my 2005 Chevy Uplander. Also ordered the Q towers and fairing.
Straightforward installation to adapt the new SkyLine towers to the standard Yakima round bars.
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!
As all yakima products not the cheapest but work
Bought as a pkg for my 2017 Golf R with Round Bars since I had a bunch of Yakima bike racks and a canoe gunwale rack for my old Yakima set up. Installation was easy with good instructions. All measurements from the Yakima site appear to be spot on.
etrailer.com shipped these out quickly and all parts arrived without damage.
The yakima jetstream crossbar looks beautiful. Quality is great. Took my vehicle for a test drive, and i didnt hear anything loose or broken from the bars. Very satisfied with the product and the instructions were great. It was my first time installing a roof rack too.
Great product haven’t had any issues with it. Would highly recommend that anyone that’s looking for a roof rack system and a great seller at etrailer
I ordered these as part of a complete roof rack kayak carrier system. Everything else was great, but this box arrived (within a larger box with other components) somewhat battered, and obviously re-taped shut.
Clearly, it was a return, and it never been inspected. Pieces of the baseclip components were missing from the box.
I contacted etrailer, and it took about 20+ minutes to arrange shipment of a new set, even after having sent several images of the box and incomplete product.
They sent a replacement, which arrived a few days later. But I purchased and paid for brand new products, and was VERY disappointed to receive a returned, incomplete set.
The Yakima roof rack system is an Outstanding product. I purchased the product to replace the OEM roof rack because it was too flimsy to carry the tandem bike mount and my bike. The Yakima roof rack is solid and provides me the peace of mind while hauling my bike on the roof of my car. etrailer provided the product for the best price as always.
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.
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 :)
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
Customer service was extremely helpful in finding the exact replacement parts needed for my old car!
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
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!!!!!
Solid and easy to instal
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.
These convertors will allow me to continue to use my hullavator system currently on round bars. The drop in feature of skyline towers makes the whole change out a snap. Certainly better than buying a whole new hullavator.
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.
Products great. Service and delivery from you company was not acceptable. when I placed my order you missed your delivery date by five days. Not sure how this happened, but requested help was not available.
etrailer rocks! Great customer service and support. All pieces worked as promised and for my vehicle.
A bit disappointed that Yakima towers do not have a height adjustment so I can make both round crossbars level to keep my canoes from catching too much air on the highway. My vehicles roof flush rails are are curved vertically and change widths front to back. Had to Mickey Mouse the back crossbar to make it higher with PVC brick moulding.
Also the tower covers with the Yakima label don't clip on strongly enough so I had to add duct tape because I did not trust them to stay on.
