Question:

Or do you have the raised side rails that will fit the 2016 honda pilot?

asked by: Tim R

Expert Reply:

We don't offer any aftermarket side rails for your 2016 Honda Pilot, but you can still install a roof rack.

Since your Pilot doesn't have the roof rails, you'll need a Yakima roof rack system for a bare roof that clamps to the inside top of the door jambs. This is a very effective mounting system that will work perfectly for your Pilot.

The most cost-effective rack uses round crossbars, you'd use the following parts:

Yakima Round 58 inch crossbars, part # Y00409
Yakima BaseLine towers, part # Y28TR
Yakima Round Bar Adapter, part # Y03536
Vehicle Specific Clip Kit, part # Y06152

For a more aerodynamic (and less noisy) option, you could use the aero-style CoreBar Rack, constructed using these parts:

60 Inch Yakima CoreBar Crossbars, part # Y00422
BaseLine Towers as mentioned above, part # Y28TR
And the Clip Kit mentioned above, part # Y06152
