Question:
I have a 2025 Mazda cx50. I have two sets of Thule hullavators. I am advised that I will need a 60:inch cross bar. Is that correct and what type of Thule attachment will I need for my new Mazda?

Hello Jim,
Congrats on the new Mazda! What is your new favorite feature?
60" crossbars for 2 Hullavators sounds about right. I do not have the schematics on every vehicle, but you will need 4-8" of overlay on each side in order to use the Hullavators (please refer to image I attached). You will want to measure your roof to make sure that is the extra length you will have.
You will need the following:
- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Rail and Edge Flush Rail Roof Rack Feet - 6147 # TH75KE
- Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails - Qty 4 # TH710601
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2 # TH711520
You will of course want to check your owners manual to see how much weight Mazda says your roof can handle. The Hullavators themselves # TH898 weigh 43 pounds.
What kind of kayaks do you have?

Hey Jim, How did the installation of the Thule Hullavators and crossbars go on your new Mazda? I'm curious to know if everything fit well and if you were able to get the right measurements. Let me know how it turned out, as it could really help others looking to set up their vehicles the same way!
