Installation Kit Was Easy To Use But Unexpected

The kit was not apparently required until I needed it. I went through the Thule sizing App. to get the correct cross-bars and EVO-clamps, but I did not see the requirement for the kit. It might have been there and I missed it, but I don't think so. I might have not bought the Thule if I knew this added cost. Anyhow, the kit and instructions were quite easily followed and installation was a cinch.

Loud Whistle Above 40 Mph

I had this installed by my honda dealer. Worse piece of equipment I ever bought.

Does Their Job!

As a fit kit, each model is design for a specific vehicle or set of vehicles. I purchased the Kit 1340 to fit my new 09 Legacy. The product does what it needs to and fits quite well.. a few unexpected gaps (since the rubber is formed specific to the roof) but nothing to worry about. I will warn anyone with the 1340 fit kit... It is designed for certain Subaru models and is highly specific because these models are vehicles that do not have framing around the windows (rather uncommon). Thule fit kits typically clamp right to the metal roof where the doors close. This kit, however, clamps to the plastic trim where the doors close (since there is no frame). Structurally a this is okay because plastic is reinforced to the vehicle frame, but I point this out because the clamping of the roof racks to the car will cause some indentation in this plastic trim where the metal plastic rests and is tightened. I noticed this only after a test fit, and haven't fully utilized the racks yet to know if it gets worse, but it's something to note if you really care about pristine appearance of this trim when you remove the racks. Otherwise, functions great and have confidence in knowing you are using a product specifically built for your car.

Thule Simplicity

I purchased the Traverse Fit Kit about 2 weeks ago. I installed it yesterday and I am very pleased with the fit on my vehicle. I am even more pleased that there was not drilling into the cab of my truck. The quality of the Thule system is great!

I Would Not Buy This Product.

I had to completely change the position of the clamps on the car as well as on the cross bars different from the specs provided with the kit because they did not fit otherwise. They were too loose.
