Expert Reply:

The Malone MegaWing, part # MPG207 and the SeaWing, part # MPG107MD are extremely similar and come in Malone's distinctive red styling, but have different applications. Its not the wrong picture, just not a great one to notice the differences.

I contacted Malone directly for more information. They are made with the same mold but different plastics. The MegaWing has roughly double the weight capacity of the SeaWing, coming in with 150lbs of capacity and designed for use in larger applications, such as fishing or ocean kayaks.

The SeaWing is made much more flexible and able to accommodate 75lbs.

Are you asking if the Malone Kayak Carriers mentioned above will fit the factory bars on your Mazda? If so, yes - they will fit those 2-1/2" wide aero-style bars without a problem.
