Rebecca, which Thule roof rack do you have? It looks like you were looking at the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490010 which is a roof tent and does not need adapters if your crossbars have t-slots.
If your crossbars don't have t-slots, then you will need the Roof Rack Adapters for Thule HideAway Awnings # TH490001 which will clamp around your bars.

Hey Rebecca, how did things go with the Thule HideAway Awning and the roof rack adapters? Did the clamp-style adapters fit your crossbars the way you needed? Your update could make it easier for the next person setting up the same awning.
