Question:
I am interested in your Dock Glide kayak SADDLES for rear mounting a Wilderness Systems kayak. AUDI has installed Crossbars three inches front to back, one inch high and I want to know if your Saddles can attach. Do I need your Thule Aeroblade and Aerobar mechanism to attach them? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
Yes. Both the Thule DockGlide Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style - Rear Loading - Universal Mount # TH896 and Thule DockGrip Kayak and SUP Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style - Rear Loading - Universal Mount # TH895 will fit on factory crossbars that are 3" wide x 1" tall. This crossbar dimension is fairly similar to the aero style cross bars that these are designed to be compatible with, so you won't need to add a Thule roof rack to use them.
I've linked some review videos of these parts for you to check out, as well.
