Great value rack adapter October 23, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Installed this adaptor on a Subaru Legacy Outback wagon with factory installed rack. Adaptor fits well and holds our Thule bike rack securely. We've taken several long distance trips with this without any problems. Great option for someone who already has a rack and simply wants to use it on a vehicle with a factory installed rack. Highly recommended.
Works Great! August 9, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Here I was, owner of a terrific rack system for my city car, and I needed to use that rack on my Subaru. This product went on the car in less than 1/2 an hour and works great.
Very Versatile May 17, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I just bought this item and was not sure what to expect. First of all, be advised that this is an adapter only that will allow you to mount racks to a factory installed roof rack. The Thule adapter attaches on to most factory roof racks be sure to check the fit guide for compatibility at www.thule.com. I used this adapter to add a pair of Yakima Raptor bike racks to my roof. Yes it worked with Yakima. The only adjustment I had make was to use a hacksaw to saw off some plastic components on the inside edges of the Yakima rack that fold in and out. I assume these were meant to be cut off because they folded back and forth. Leaving them on allows you to mount to a rounded bar and cutting them off adapts them to this bar which is rectangular in shape. In less than 1 hour everything was complete. This item is very afforadable, versatile, and easy to install.
