Question:
i have a 2016 honda CRV without roof rails. I also have a set of square Thule cross bars. Do you have towers that would work on the honda and accept the Thule cross bars?

Hello Chad, thanks for reaching out. I do have a solution for you, but first I will need to know exactly what kind of Thule square bars you have. Basically there are new-style and old-style bars. The new-style bars have a bottom channel for mounting the towers. The old-style bars are just a solid bar and do not have a bottom channel. We have solutions for both, just select from the following depending what kind of bar you have.
New Style bars:
- Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4 # TH710501
- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp and Edge Clamp Roof Rack Feet - 5108 # TH145108
Old Style bars:
- Inno Feet for Square Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Black - Qty 4 # INSUT
- Custom Fit Kit for Inno XS200, XS250, and INSU-K5 Roof Rack Feet # INK413
How long are your Thule bars? I ask because they recommend a 53" square bar for the 2016 CRV so I want to be sure your bars are the right length.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
