Question:

Hi, I have a question about the Rhino Rack Aero Vortex Crossbars. I'm coming from stock Subaru aero bars and have used the old-style c-shaped might mounts in the past to mount things to the crossbars. Do you carry anything like that for the Vortex bars? I believe those bars are larger, so the mounts that I have will not work.

If you have the Yakima Universal MightyMount Adapters, part # Y03590, you are in good shape. The Universal MightyMounts will work with all aero style crossbars that are no more than 4 inches wide or 1-1/2 inches tall. The Vortex bars are just 3-1/8 inches wide and 1-3/16 inches tall, so they will be a good fit.

If you have the Yakima MightyMount 34H or the 39H, part # Y03539, you will need to replace them. These are specifically contoured for smaller factory aero bars and will not work with the Rhino Rack Aero Vortex Crossbars.

I've provided a link to the Rhino Rack Aero Bar roof racks that will work with your 2017 Subaru Impreza. You will need to select the vehicle style to narrow down your choices. I've also included a link to the installation of one of our most popular Rhino Racks for your vehicle.
