Thule Square Bar Roof Rack For 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport w/ Flush Rails

Updated 05/31/2024 | Published 05/27/2024

Question:

I have an older thule square bar system with accessories. Im looking to use this on a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. The rails are flush no space between body. I will need new feet to connect square crossbars to newer rail style. Is there such an adapter? Id prefer not ha ing together all new accessories. Thanks!

Hey Stephen,

So Thule updated their crossbar systems to the Evo style, and those aren't compatible with the old parts, unfortunately. The Evo square bars use a channel underneath to attach to the feet, and the old bars didn't have that.

There isn't any type of adapter made by Thule for these either, so for your 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with flush rails you would have to get a new set up. I know it's not the news you were wanting but I did at least want to give you the option, with the correct fit for your Hyundai being the Thule Custom Fit Roof Rack # TH28EG.
