Amazon Basics Cross Rail Roof Rack, 52 inches, 2 Pack, Black/Silver

The Amazon Basics 52-inch long cross rail roof rack is designed to fit most cars, SUVs, or crossovers with raised longitudinal rails. To ensure a compatible fit, the gap between the rail and car roof must be at least 1/2 inch (1.3cm), and the distance between the outer edge of the two rails must be between 38.6 inches (98cm) and 46 inches (117cm). Additionally, the diameter of the rail should be within the range of 1.4-2.1 inches (36-55mm). The specific vehicle models that are compatible with this roof rack can be found in the detailed product description.

To reduce wind noise, users can install the included rubber sealing strips into the roof racks, as demonstrated in the provided paper UM or DP video instructions.

The heavy-duty aluminum crossbars offer a strong and lightweight construction that is resistant to corrosion, with a maximum capacity of 165 pounds. The easy installation process involves using rubber-coated steel clamps that provide superior grip and protection against damage to the vehicle's surface.

The roof crossbars also feature a built-in locking system to prevent them from being stolen.

It is important to note that this roof rack is not recommended for installation on cars with closed rails, as the clamps on the crossbars cannot fully wrap around the rail, which could result in an unstable and potentially hazardous setup. Examples of such vehicles include the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC and the 2020 BMW X3.

Customers are advised to refer to the provided video for guidance on how to properly choose and install the roof rack to ensure a secure and safe fit for their specific vehicle.
