Question:
I have a 2021 Nissan Armada SL and trying to see if the Rhino Rack Backbone RNPB1 will work. The Rhino Racks manufacturer install steps seem to suggest it will steps 6-16 stating they only apply to post-facelift 2021 y62s but all of the websites including yours will not outright state whether the post 2021 Armadas will work. I am not opposed to making the minor cuts in the plastic trim on the roof to expose the bolt holes if that is the only modification required. Can you confirm?

Hey Brian,
Rhino-Rack has not confirmed that the Backbone # RRRNPB1 would be a fit for 2021 models and instead lists that you need to use their specific feet to mount a platform so that leads me to believe that the mounting hole spacing or curvature of the roof changed in a way that prevented the rails from fitting.
Do you have factory rails that run front to back? If so you can use the RX100 feet # RR97AP to mount a Pioneer platform rack.
