Expert Reply:

The roof rack I highly recommend for your 2017 Fiat 500 is from Yakima and consists of the following parts:

- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425 (Black)
- BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y28TR
- BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06110
- BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06123

This roof rack will look graceful atop your Fiat due to the aerodynamic shape of the JetStream crossbars. The aero shape of these bars, along with their built-in WindRidges, is also what ensures that this roof rack minimizes the wind noise that other types of crossbars can create. It also has large, 50 inch crossbars, so you have plenty of room to mount a number of rooftop bike racks.

For that I recommend the I highly recommend the Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103 because it is a wheel-mounted bike rack that won't require you to remove your bike's wheels to carry them. The rack also has an integrated locking cable which secures your bikes to the roof rack so you can protect your investments.

You can lock the roof rack to your Fiat with the 4-pack of Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07204; if you get the FrontLoader you can also add locks to secure it to the rack, and you can get both keyed alike by adding the 6-pack of Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07206.

I have added links to some video reviews to check out as well, of the locks, crossbars and Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103.
