Hey Robert! You can go ahead and send any questions you have in the comment box below and I'll be happy to answer them. I will say all the Thule Caprock's like the item # TH98YE you were looking at are going to be too wide.
Since your 2024 Honda Pilot has the factory raised rails on the side you should be able to use the TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars item # Y33TR to attach the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack item # Y05044-39. So long as the distance between the center of your roof rails is between 28-1/2" and 39-3/4" this set up will work on your SUV.

Hey Robert, how did things go with the Yakima LockNLoad platform rack and TimberLine towers on your Honda Pilot? Your update could make it easier for others trying to find a good fit for their factory side rails.
