Expert Reply:
In order to use the Yakima SteelHead Roof Mounted Bike Carrier on your 2017 Toyota Highlander you would need to install a round bar system like the Yakima Roof Rack System part # Y00408, part # Y53TR, part # Y03536, and part # Y00242 if you have flush side rails or the Yakima Roof Rack System part # Y00409, part # Y28TR, part # Y03536, and part # Y06130 if you have a bare roof.
If you want to keep the roof rack you have now then I recommend selling the SteelHead and buying the Yakima ForkLift Roof Mounted Bike Carrier part # Y02098 as it will work with aero crossbars. Unfortunately, there is not an adapter that will allow the SteelHead to work on aero crossbars.
I have attached review videos for you.
