Question:
I have a 2019 Mini Cooper hardtop with 4 doors. I love the Thule Aeroblade roof rack. My question is, do I need to use the short roof adapter I've seen to install this rack on my Mini?

I have good news for you - the Thule Short-Roof Adapter Kit for Traverse Roof-Rack Feet TH487 is NOT needed for you to install the Thule Roof Rack on your 2019 Mini Cooper hardtop with four doors.
You have made a great choice with this roof rack as it is the one I would strongly recommend for your '19 Mini because of its combination of function, durability and style. The rack that fits your '19 Mini Cooper is made up of the following parts:
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711220 (Black) OR # TH711200 (Silver)
- Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710501
- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp Roof Rack Feet # TH145005
This roof rack is the best option for your Mini because it is highly functional with the ability to carry a multitude of accessories like bike racks or roof boxes; it is also durable, very quiet and easy to use.
The WingBar Evo crossbars are aerodynamic with a tapered shape and have integrated WindDiffusers which minimize wind noise so you can drive in peace without the loud and annoying whistling noise that can occur with other crossbars. This aero shape is also what helps to give the WingBar Evo a distinct look atop your vehicle.
I do recommend using Thule's One-Key System lock cylinders # TH450400 to lock the rack and help protect your investment. I have added a link to a video review of this rack for you to check out and the accompanying photo is an example of how the rack looks when installed.
