Thule Fit Kit And Feet Needed For RetraxPRO XR Tonneau Cover T-Slots
Updated 11/03/2025 | Published 01/06/2025 >
Question:
I am interested in this tonneau cover for my 2019 F350 short bed. I already have a Thule square bar setup with bike and kayak carriers. I am having issues finding what feet I need to fit the t slots to my towers for my Thule rack. What adaptors do I need to use my existing Thule setup with this cover?

Hey Nick,
The Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet - 3101 # THKIT3101 would be the correct fit kit for the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-80383's t-slots. These only connect to Thule's Rapid Podium Feet # TH460R so you would need to have these feet to mount your SquareBars.
I've attached an installation video below where Matt will take you step by step through the installation process for the cover. I've also attached a photo from someone's setup with aerobars, if you'd like to send in some photos of your setup once it's all complete it'd be cool to add as well.

Hey Nick, how did things turn out with the RetraxPRO XR cover and the Thule Rapid Podium feet? Did the fit kit make it easier to use your existing bike and kayak carriers? Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same setup.
