Hey, Richard.

I did a bunch of research and your Rhino Rack roof top tent should already come with everything to attach it to tracks. The only tent Rhino Rack has available is part # RR77AP, which is a soft shell tent. I included a snip of the instructions that goes over the channel mount install. Most brands use the standard size when it comes to their channels, since we don't carry BillieBars I'm not 100% if they have standard channels or have a proprietary size.

Does your current Rhino Rack tent attach with bracket to the bars or have another way of attaching? You may have to reach out to BillieBars directly to check about their channels. And if you can get back to me about how your tent mounts, I can see what I can find out for you.

Does your RTT have two rails on the bottom of it? If it does you are better off going with the quick disconnect kit.

@LoganL There should be two rails on the bottom for attachment. Or do you mean two sets of rails, one pair going side to side and a pair running front to back?

@GwendolynY rails on the tent itself that use T nuts, or T bolts, for the bolts to thread in to.
