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.

Hey Chad, did you find out which type of Thule square bars you have and if the recommended towers worked for your Honda CRV? I'm asking because it could help others with a similar setup.
