Question:
Having to pull the headliner sounds a little overboard for a roof rack. I also have been doing some other looking on your sight and saw one post where one of the techs said it did use toggle bolts? What are the customer clips you are referring to? I am looking for the best way to mount a luggage system to accommodate my Thule cargo basket.

The Thule Roof Mounted Top Rack System - 54" Long # THTP54 attaches to your roof with the included fastening hardware. You will need to remove your headliner in your 2012 Dodge 2500 to install the tracks, so you will be able to easily work around any wiring in your roof. The kit comes with sealant as well to ensure a water tight connection. To use the rails, you will need fit kit # THKIT3101 and Podium feet # TH460R, and then crossbars # TH711520 or # TH711500.
If you don't want to use the track, you can instead use the same crossbars, the # TH710501 feet, and then use the fit kit # TH145106 which will be a custom fit for your 2012 Dodge 2500.
With either option, I recommend the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4 # TH450400 to secure your system to your roof and deter theft.
Let me know if you are interested in a cargo box or basket for your additional storage.
