Question:

I have a 2015 Buick Enclave Convenience package and would like to mount a Thule Hullavator TH898 with a Thule EVO eom. Do you have a mounting kit that would be able to attach this equipment? Im not sure the THKIT1218 is the correct method and I cant access the installation manual. And do you have installation instructions or a video?

Expert Reply:

There is not currentlyu a fully Thule roof rack system available. To utilize the Hullavator system on your 2015 Buick Enclave you will not be able to utilize the flush mounted (front to back) roof rails. However you can acccomplish this with the following parts,
1. Thule # TH898 Hullavator kayak carrier with lift assist
2. Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2
3. Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA
4. Rhino-Rack Custom Fit Kit # DK224

I have attached links to these items and a install video for a 2008 Enclave which is nearly identical to your 2015. I have also attached a video review for the Hullavator system as well.
