Question:

The product photos only show the bars, not the locking mechanism that attaches them to rails - does it come with the bars? And are these same or significantly different from MPG202? thank you

I have an answer for you. Unfortunately, the Inno Square Crossbars # INB147 does not come with the feet (that have the locking mechanism) that are needed to mount the crossbars to your 2018 Honda Odyssey's roof. The Malone SteelTop Roof Rack # MPG202, on the other hand, comes with all the parts needed to mount onto your vehicle's roof. For the feet for the Inno crossbars, that is part # INFR.

Other than the feet on the Inno square crossbars, another difference between the roof rack systems is that the Malone SteelTop Roof Rack is rating at 165 pounds while the Inno Square Crossbars are rated at 140 pounds. Other than that, these crossbar systems are virtually the same.
