Expert Reply:

The Rhino Rack Batwing Awning # RR33200 is a bolt on installation so it won't be able to work with your factory crossbars. You'll need to add another roof rack system with tracks to be able to use the batwing awning. You can use something like these legs # CXB and these bars # RB1250. These have a channel which will work with the hardware on the Batwing. You will need this mounting kit # RR31102.

I personally have not used the XTM 270 Batwing Awning before. So I think that the batwing would be the best option since I'm familiar with it. They seem to be pretty similar.
