Question:

I have ordered the Yakima Showdown Y04081 and now need to add towers, black aero bars and locks to complete the package. I would prefer to stay with Yakima across the board with these. Would you be able to recommend the appropriate towers and the bar length needed to give the required overhang for a 2024 Toyota Rav4 Hybrid with factory low profile roof rails? Thanks and regards-

Expert Reply:

I'm glad you want to stick with Yakima since it is what I would have recommended regardless. For your 2024 RAV4 with flush rails I recommend the Yakima JetStream roof rack. You will need the following:

-Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425 (black) OR # Y00428 (silver)

-SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR

-Landing Pad 23 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers # Y98FR

-Yakima Same Key System Lock Cores (QTY 6) # Y07206 for the rack and ShowDown OR # Y07204 for just the rack.

The JetStream crossbars are super quiet which is what makes them the best option. These are the 50" bars which will extend far enough beyond the towers (3-1/2") to be compatible with your ShowDown # Y04081.
