Today on our 2012 GMC Terrain, we'll be test fitting the Thule AeroBlade Crossroad Roof Rack System using part numbers THARB47 and TH450R. With our roof rack pre-assembled according to the instructions, we're ready to go ahead and fit it to the vehicle. We'll set the front crossbar on top of the factory raised side rails. We'll bring the rubber coated steel strap underneath the side rails and clamp them to each foot. After ensuring the triangles on each foot are pulling directly over the side rails and that our AeroBlade is even with the vehicle, we can go ahead and tighten it down using the included Allen wrench with an inch foot. And that will secure the front crossbar to our vehicle.

Today on this 2011 Nissan Rogue we are going to show you how to install a Thule Crossroad roof rack system. The Thule Crossroad system is designed to attach to vehicles with factory raised side rails like we have on our Rogue. Once we have the crossbars assembled, we can place them on top of our side rails. Make sure that they are spaced evenly on both sides with the side rails so that the crossbars run perpendicular to your vehicle. Once you have the front crossbar in place, you can use the integrated tool on the end cap to tighten them down. The Crossroad feet attach to the factory side rails using a rubber coated steel band. This band will strongly and securely grip your side rails but the rubber coating will help protect them as well. As we tighten down the clamp on the Crossroad foot, it also tightens the crossbar into the foot. We will move back and forth from the driver side to the passenger side to make sure the rack tightens down evenly and we do not lose our positioning.
