Question:

Hello, I am seeking help to locate a roof rack to carry my kayak. I have a 2023 Toyota Camry LE. My vehicle has no existing rails or crossbars. I use forearm crutches to walk and saw the hullavator sysytem. This or a similar system would be very helpful for me to load the kayak. Would this system be compatible with my vehicle. If a representative could assist me in locating a rack system for my car I’d be very grateful. I hope to hear from a rep soon! Thank you

Expert Reply:

For the Thule Hullavator item # TH898 lift assist function to work you will need a longer crossbar that extends 4" - 8" past the legs of your roof rack. For your 2023 Toyota Camry with a naked roof, I recommend the roof rack by Thule and it includes the following parts:

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2 item # TH711520

Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4 item # TH710501

Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp and Edge Clamp Roof Rack Feet - 5082 item # TH145082

I also recommend getting the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 6 item # TH450600. This set of six locking cylinders can be controlled by the same key and used to secure both your roof rack and Hullavator from theft.
