Question:

I received the Thule crossbars TH7603B for my 2021 Toyota Rav4 and they dont seem to fit into the holes of the flush mount rails. Am I doing something wrong or did I get the wrong crossbars?

The correct Thule WingBar Edge roof rack for your 2021 Toyota RAV4 with flush roof rails uses the following parts:

Crossbars - # TH89FE
Legs - # TH29SC
Fit Kit - # TH78RE

I've installed Thule roof racks on roofs with flush mount rails before and you'll want to make sure that you've followed all of the steps correctly. Sometimes that L-Shaped bracket for the fit kit will be turned the wrong way which keeps the holes from lining up correctly.

Attached is an installation video we did of a similar Thule roof rack on a 2020 RAV4 that you can check out.
