Question:

I have a 2010 Honda CR-V and older square Thule crossbars older than 2010. Do you have products that will allow me to attach the crossbars to my car? If I bought a complete roof rack kit from you, it looks like the cheapest option would be the Rhino-Rack RVP aluminum rack for $499. Im guessing my older Thule crossbars would be stronger but less aerodynamic than these. Id be interested in your opinion on my options.

Hey Bill, thanks for reaching out. Yes, it is possible to use the old-style Thule square bars on your 2010 Honda CR-V. What you can do is use Inno brand towers and fit kit. The current Inno square bars are identical to the old Thule bars, so those parts are known to be cross compatible. As long as your Thule bars are long enough (at least 46" is recommended), here is what you can use:

- Inno Feet for Square Crossbars - Track Systems and Fixed Mounting Points - Black - Qty 4 # INXP

- Custom Fit Kit for Inno XS300, XS350, XS400, XS450, INTR, and INXR Roof Rack Feet # INTR121

How long are your Thule bars? What will you be using the rack for?
