2 bars must be spaced by 70 cm min according to the video. What is the max space between them ? How are we supposed to choose the position of both bars ? How far should the front bar be from the windshield ? or the rear bar from the antenna ? My car is a Ford Focus 3 SW. I already bought all needed parts following the website Thule, but i need some answers. Thanks a lot.
Video is nice, but i Really tired to keep looking for the size guidelines. It is totally not clear how to select a BAR length for a car. I have distance of 94 cm between built-in rails. How long BARs I need, 94 or less due to Edge additional length? How big gap is possible? ... Why it is much easier to find this info for another BAR brands?
@therawandcooked definitely you know the way. I struggled thinking it should easily slide into the rail….finally gave up and used a flat head to get that plastic piece into the rail
Nope - no codswhallop here (whatever that is). Simply stand the cross bar vertically, insert the bracket into the rail and with both thumbs, (a thumb on each side of the retention nodule), press very firmly down on each side of the nodule at the same time and bend the plastic as you force bracket downward - the nodule will duck under the edge enough to push the bracket in and make the nodule click into its hole. (At 1:28 in the video, the nodule is actually pressed (but with invisble thumbs) just as the rack is slid fully into the cross bar). Easy peasy.
Hi. I have a question that need urgent reply (I am going on holiday on the 17th of August and need a roof bar). I have a grand C4 Picasso 2015 with Flush rails (not raised). But it looks a lilittle bit different than the one you are showing. How can I explain is all in one piece smooth so would the clamp fit?On the internal part of each rails there is an horizontal hole to fix the other side of the clamp. I went to my local Halford and the guy told me that he is not sure it will fit even it you state it will. HELP!
You can find the correct rack for your car using the guide in the roof rack section on thule.com. You can download the manuals and check how the fitting is done.
Yes they are metal so they can take the weight of the cargo and be safe to use. The clamps have a special paint that is rubberized to prevent scratching. So if you clean the railing and maintain as recommended in the manual it wont scratch the railing.
Hi, I was wondering whether the height between bar and roof is lower compared to the Evo Flushrail? (Same car). If yes, how much? Thanks for the information
The Thule Flush Rail Evo foot pack is 7.2cm high up until the bar underside. The Thule Flush Rail Edge foot pack is 5.4 cm high including the bar so the edge versions bar comes much closer to the roof.
What's the mount kit number of the one in the video? I need a fit kit that works with my flush mounts! My flush mounts are similar than the ones in the video! Does any one knows the part number?
We have several hundreds of kits and this is just one of many used in this general instruction movie. Please use our car selector on the roof rack section on thule.com to find out what is needed for your specific car.
The height between bar and roof depends on the bar design, height of flush railing and the specific kit for your car so it is hard to give you a number there. We never recommend opening sunroofs with a roof rack installed unless the sunroof goes in under the roof of the car like it does on Subaru Forester.

Hello. I need help about the difference of Thule roof racks. I am in between this model (Thule Edge Fixpoint) and Thule Wingbar Edge 959x series. I could not find any comparision. Would you please tell which one has lower profile (near to roof) and better aerodynamics? Thanks.

This is how you do animations! lovely
Slick video but completely missed the difficult bits of putting the brackets onto the rail. Simply sliding it into place - codswhallop!

I see that those clamps that attach to the car rail are metal. Won’t this scartch the railing?
Yes they are metal so they can take the weight of the cargo and be safe to use. The clamps have a special paint that is rubberized to prevent scratching. So if you clean the railing and maintain as recommended in the manual it wont scratch the railing.
Hi Thule!.. I really like the edge design.. Will this fit on a GAC GS8 2024 model? If not, please advise.. TIA
Please use the car selector on our roof rack pages to see if a fit is available and what parts you need.
Thanks for the reply. I actually did that and noticed that GAC not listed. Just thought you could suggest which model is compatible for GAC GS8 🙏🏼
@@madiaz29 If we do not list the car we do not have a roof rack for it. A solution could come in the future.
@@thule Thanks of the update..🙏🏻

How high above the roof is the crossbar? Can sunroofs open?

3y ago.... and you charge real money for the same solution.....even....
Inca esti sarac?
Where is the paper I can write down my key number?
Didn’t get that!?
😂
For Some reason, there was no metal lock with a key in the package I bought, just cheap plastic locks that fit poorly…
Same thing with mine. For how much it costs it should have the keys...
What can I use this for though? Can I put a bike or snowboard on it?

The fact the paper instruction and videos instruction neither have text or verbal directions is the dumbest thing.
