Expert Reply:
I am sorry the older Hullavator 897XT you own can not be converted to mount on Yakima CoreBar Crossbars like item # Y00421 because there is no t-slot. I confirmed this information with Thule.
The only solution I have for you is to upgrade to the new Hullavator item # TH898 you were looking at.
