I took a look at the roof rack requirements for the Roofnest Sparrow and can confirm the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG216 will work for you based on these requirements so long as your raised side rails allow you to position the crossbars at least 38" apart. This is a function of your 2019 Toyota RAV4 rather than the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack so if you do not have this you will need to look at other tents or vehicles.
