The specifications I have access to indicate that RX-350's come with flush mounted roof rails that run from front to back. You will need cross bars with towers (feet) and a fit kit for your RX-350. I recommend the Yakima # Y00421 cross bars and you will then need to add # Y00145 towers and the # Y06027 fit kit. I recommend this model as it has an aerodynamic shape that will generate less wind noise when driving and is the sleekest looking. (If it turns out that you do not have flush mounted roof rails let me know and I will see if there is another alternative.

Yakima was not able to provide me the measurement from the roof to the bottom of the cross bars so I cannot say what, if any, interference there would be with the sunroof. Ensure you have sufficient room before operating the roof.

I have provided links to all of these products and a video of the crossbars, but note that in the video they are using clamps for a vehicle without roof rails.
