Congrats on the new vehicle Jeremy! The MOS UpLift Roof Rack Lift Assist w/ Cargo Box item # MR79ZV should definitely fit the factory crossbars on your new 2025 Honda Pilot but we haven't had a chance to verify this ourselves.
The MOS UpLift item # MR79ZV works with crossbars that measure up to 3-1/2" wide and 1-1/2" tall and any shape. What you'll want to make sure you have is the right amount of crossbar spread. The front and rear crossbar need to be separated by 20" to 39".
I have attached a couple of pictures below so you can see what the MOS UpLift Roof Rack item # MR79ZV looks like in action. I have also linked the installation instructions so you can see how to get it set up.
