Hi, I'm Matt with etrailer. If you have a 2024 Subaru Crosstrek and you're looking for something that's gonna be a really easy installation and have a clean look on top of your roof, then the Thule Roof Rack is gonna be a great option for you. So let's check it out. It is important to note that we do have this on top of a roof with raised rails, and there's a couple different options out there. So some roofs, like we have today, you'll be able to put your fingers underneath, that's a raised roof. There's gonna be other ones that you can grab on the rails, but you can't get your hands underneath, that's gonna be flushed rails. And then some options don't have rails at all, and those will be naked roofs. So just make sure you're looking at the correct one for you. You can also put in your vehicle's information into our fit guide to find the right fit for you. And really, there's just gonna be two components to this rack. So up top, we're gonna have our WingBar crossbars. And what's nice about this is we have this aero shape to the bar, and that's gonna help it be more wind resistant, so you'll have less noise when driving down the road. Something else that's gonna help reduce wind noise is gonna be this weather strip at the very top. It's also gonna prevent any debris from getting in there. And what this is protecting is your T-channel. So if you don't wanna use any clamp-on accessories, you can use this T-channel instead. And what I like about this design is if I just flip up this endcap, you have access to it. A lot of you actually have to remove the endcap completely, so it makes using this really quick and easy. You're also gonna have another channel underneath the crossbar, and that's gonna be how you mount your towers. And this tower is a really simple design. All I have to do is remove this endcap, and that's gonna reveal one bolt. That's really nice that we only have one bolt to deal with. That one bolt's gonna help cinch your tower to your rails and help cinch it to the crossbar all in one go. And we have this nice endcap to give us more of a clean finish. And then, if you look at the endcap, we're gonna have this plastic core. That plastic core is just more of a placeholder. So if later on down the road you wanna get a metal lock core, you can get that just for more security. And we can take a closer look at the fitment we're getting right now. So if you noticed here, we have a pretty flushed design. We do have a bit of a gap here, which is actually pretty minimal compared to some other clamp-on towers I've seen in the past. Now, if you don't like that we don't have anything underneath it, then I'd recommend checking out the Yakima crossbars, because that tower actually has a strap that wraps all the way around and give you full coverage. But I do think this is giving us a really good fit today, because if you look underneath here, this actually extends a decent amount underneath that rail. And when I go to shake it, you can tell this thing isn't going anywhere. Now, I can get a few measurements just to see how this is gonna live on top of our roof. The first one I'm gonna get is gonna be the total height it adds. That's gonna be a little bit under three inches, which is pretty low profile. Now, what I suggest doing is just taking the total height of your vehicle, crossbar, and if you have any gear on top of that, just include that too, so you know if you can make it under a garage or not. Now, the next one I'm gonna get is gonna be the distance underneath our crossbar, and that's gonna sit at about three inches. So you're gonna have plenty of space to put your gear up there, especially if they have larger clamps. And something to definitely take account for is gonna be if you have a sunroof. (sunroof buzzing) And with that sunroof up, we can get a measurement to see what the closest point is gonna be. That's gonna be a little bit under 2 1/2 inches. So that will prevent you from using those larger clamps. But if you have anything that just uses some pretty low profile clamps or even just some straps that wrap around your crossbars, those should be fine. As far as the overhang goes, we don't have a whole lot, which is pretty nice if you want that more clean look to your roof. Now, there is one downside, and that's if you're trying to mount any clamp-on accessories to th
