Question:
I have a 2009 Acura MDX with no rack on or rails. I have a hullavator. What rack should I purchase?
asked by: David
Expert Reply:
For the Thule Hullavator # TH898, you will need slightly longer crossbars than you would use with other accessories because it needs to provide clearance on the side of your 2009 Acura MDX. I recommend using the following:
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 59" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA150B-2
Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Qty 4 # RRRLKVA
Custom DK Fit Kit # DK176
This roof rack will fit your naked roof perfectly giving you longer crossbars needed and comes with locks to secure it to your vehicle. I've attached a couple videos to assist.
