Question:

Hello, I have a 2023 Mazda CX-50 PPT with the Mazda branded Roof Platform that seems very similar to the Yakima LocknLoad Platform. Will these Thule SUP Pads fit around one of the Roof Platforms cross beam/slats? The slats are rectangular and measure 3 1/8 inches by 1 inch, which equates to a circumference/perimeter of 8 1/4 inch. Yakima sells a similar SUP Pad. Will theire SUP pads it around one of the Roof Platforms cross beam/slats?
