Product Description:
The 'Q' in Q Towers stands for the quadruple movement capability of the tower and the clip. So the four degrees of freedom allows them to fit your car like custom tailored underpants. Add-vehicle specific Q-clips (00601-00730) to ensure a custom fit to your doorframe (Do not confuse Q-Clips with similar-sounding personal hygiene products. Attempting to clean your ears with Q-Clips may result in serious Vincent Van Gogh-like injuries.)

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good rack
I bought these towers and rack components for a VW Passat sedan. One bit of advice, install the metal clips to the towers BEFORE you put the rack on the car.

I can also pry the cover with my ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works Great
This Yakima roof rack system works great and I highly recommend it. I bought one for my Mazda 3 and have use it, along with a Yakima roof rack for 2 cross country ski trips (I live a Florida, skiing is far away). The rack hasn't shifted an inch and was relatively easy to install. Yakima has a product guide on their site to make sure you order the right pieces for your model car.
