Question:
Will the clamps and feet in this kit, the thule Kit 145209, work with the older style thule Thule 480 Traverse Foot which uses the square bars? I have a full kit with the feet and bars but have a new Corolla and would like to just swap the clamp and feet in the Thule 480 Traverse Feet so I dont need to buy a whole new rack but I cannot tell if these can be swapped in.

Hey Shane, I wish it would work but the current fit kits will not work with the older style roof rack feet like what you have which is pretty frustrating. Even the square bars are now different as they attach with a channel on underside now instead of wrapping around like the feet you have now.
Now with that said the Inno square bars are exact same dimensions so if you wanted to reuse your current square bars you could use the part # INSUT for the feet and the fit kit part # INK762 which are a confirmed fit for your 2024 Toyota Corolla. This is most cost effective way to install a rack on your car.
What do you carry on your roof?
