Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2009 Mazda 5 that uses the Factory Fixed Mounting Points  

Updated 03/26/2014 | Published 03/22/2014



Question:

My 2009 Mazda5 has factory mounting points for a roof rack, which others like Thule and Yakima utilize. Does this Rhino Rack use these points, or do I have to use the clamp on system?

I have exactly what you are looking for. You can use the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2 for black or # RRVA118S-2 for silver with the 2500 Series Leg Kit # RRRLKVA, and the Custom DK Clamps and Pads # DK285. This rack uses your fixed mounting points.

I have attached a demonstration video of this roof rack on a similar vehicle to give you an idea on how it installs.

The weight capacity of this rack is 165 pounds. Before loading any cargo on your roof, I recommend checking your owners manual to verify the weight capacity of your vehicles roof. If your roof weight capacity is lower than the weight capacity of the roof rack, then you will want to use that capacity as your weight limit.
