Amazon Basics Cross Rail Roof Rack, 56 inches, Fits up to 49.6" Spans between Raised Side Rails with Gap, Pack of 2, Black/Silver

I wanted to see if I could install these on my own. For reference, I’m a middle-aged woman, who is handy, but definitely not in shape! I’m five-two, and with the help of a towel and a step stool, these were super easy to install. The directions are sparse, so I recommend watching a few videos if you are not familiar with the general process of installing cross bars. That’s all I needed in order to understand the basics as a first-timer.The process took me a half hour. I found that a towel draped across the top of my Equinox was a helpful place to set tools. This protected from scratches, but it also made it easy to pull the tools back and forth across the roof when I was switching sides.I haven’t put them to the test yet by hauling gear, but they sure felt sturdy when I was pulling on them!Learn from my mistake: If you realize you put the end caps on too soon (ha!), a flat head screw driver and some gentle tapping from my mallet helped ease them back out without breaking them.

Just installed this today (56") to fit my Xcargo Roof on my 2007 Suburban and all went well. Looks sturdy and grabs so well on the factory roof rack. I will update this review when I return from my travel to fully test this cross bars. Not bad for the price. Here are the photos for your reference if you are on the fence in getting these

They have to be tightened often. Quality is ok, the black tips do come off easy. I use them but I am not confident they will hold my kayaks sturdy for a long trip. Easy to put on and take off. They do move around with the weight of the kayaks.

Fits well on 2012 BMW X5 (E70), OEM rails.Sticks out only a few inches. Note that 56" overall width includes two plastic pieces, one inch each. So, fictionally it's 54".Another note is they include enough plastic strip to fill between the clamps, not just outside. It's doable to install first, then measure and jump the strip into place.I found end caps hard to push in, so I doubt they will fall out. But, I put a little bit of silicone sealant on the caps before inserting.Fells solid, with only minimal play. Excited to give it a try.

Very nice looking on car and it is secured on car so someone can’t steel them . My daughter loves them she puts her surfboard on it with the racks no rust value of money it’s sturdiness storage weight and easy assembly.

No instructions provided, but was able to figure it out without too much trouble. This fit my 2025 Mini Cooper Countryman All4, but the mounting brackets are fairly generic and the fit was not what I had hoped. It will do. For the price I paid and the quick delivery through Amazon, this was acceptable, but if you have time I would try another vendor for this item.

Mounted on my 2025 Santa Fe. A very close fit. Could have used longer bars. Because of that, had to modify slightly to make it fit. Once modified, it looks great. Cannot beat the price, considering the Thule rack is $410. It seems pretty strong but downside is that the bars are not Thule compatible. I do think a Thule bar can be mounted on the clamps.
