Can I drive through a car wash with it on my roof???

[@MorozovAutomotive]

@@joejosepf2709 Yes, you can.

[@Thisisjustname]

Man, you have a video for literally eveything I want to do to my car. I love your videos.

[@AgustinWhittaker]

EXCELLENT video ... very helpful. Thank you so much!

[@kiloaway]

nice. now i got an idea how to put the cross bar on my new lexus. thanks a lot for sharing

[@conradmcdougall3629]

You are a life saver. I am going to order the rack now that I see how easy it is. By the way, the accent is great. I miss working with Russians.

[@dcfavorite]

Thanks for the video! This is really helpful! It's nice to hear the sound of skytrain in the background too. Anyone living in Vancouver can pick that up immediately. 🤣

[@chrisewen3813]

A close up at 4:18 - 4:25 for those of us that have a hard time aligning the rails and the rack.

[@gerihenry2261]

So helpful, thank you!!! Just what we needed to know for one we plan to purchase!!

[@premsoma1]

Wow thank you. You made it look simple and good motivation for people like me. Thank you so much, I am an independent driver, I'm in need of a roof rack to put some luggage in case I have 4 people w luggage to the airport or cruse. Thank you so much for this video, Blessings 🙌

[@Fdoo4]

Спасибо! Смог установить поперечины благодаря Вашему видео! Thank you! I installed these roof racks with the help of your video!

[@portnuefflyer]

I appreciate the "it won't effect the drag, AS MUCH." Meaning, even nicely shaped as it is, it's a bit of drag, I want a quick release rack, for the 99.9% of the time I don't need the rack but want max mileage with '21 Prime.

[@joejosepf2709]

Thanks again..friend!!!!

[@MrPhantom453]

Very helpful video for the exact same roof rails I just purchased from eBay for my 2022 RAV4. Thank you very much for your fine work and great video.

[@bluex21]

Thanks for the video. My Rav has crossbars aready, but I'm thinking of removing them to see if wind noise is reduced. This video helps. Looks like I'll need those short black plastic covers to install on the roof rails after removing the crossbars. By the way, those crossbars rattled when I first picked up the car. Apparently the installation bolts weren't tightened properly.

[@jackfleming6212]

If you have a sun roof and you open it. When you get on the highway or drive 40plus MPH. It makes noise, it disturbs the air flow. I have a limited, and I’m taking mine off. Besides they are only good for 160 lbs.

[@think-about-it6059]

Clear, concise... thanks!

[@tiempoespacial6996]

Very good presentation, thank you !

[@realLuisGiordano]

You should add some drops of medium (blue) threadlocker so the bolts don't get loose from vibrations

[@l-u-k-e8970]

Watched your Rav4 videos, very helpful for DIY. If possible, could you make a video about how to replace reveal molding toyota part# 75575-0R060? Thx

[@bluecollarstudio8513]

My 2022 Rav4 didnt come with roof rails to mount the rack. Now I have to figure that out.

[@joejosepf2709]

Thanks Jas..But I will double check with our local car wash place .( we pay $$ monthly, for unlimited car wash visits.)..I trust your opinion..Thanks Buddy

[@khoa911]

Thank you for the video. Do you think I can attack a Thule ski carrier 91725B on top of the cross bar?

[@richardrankin7488]

Thanks. Great video.

[@samsungh3137]

too bad these cross bars arent adjustable forward or to the rear as in most full size suvs

[@tomkallio9920]

So why didn't Toyota leave openings along the side rails in order to put straps to hold a kayak down ?

[@jim-sg9tv]

Thx for the very helpful video - when I remove the roof rack, do I need some sort of plug, or a shorter bolt to fill the holes that the roof rack bolts go into the car (to avoid moisture getting in the holes)?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Thank you! No, you do not. It comes without the plug/bolt from the factory.

[@jim-sg9tv]

@@MorozovAutomotive thx for your reply - appreciate knowing this!

[@truthhurts228]

Hi, Great video! I just ordered the same bars for my 2021 Rav4 Limited Hybrid. One question: I noticed that you did not use thread locker, aren't you concerned that these may vibrate loose after numerous miles/potholes, etc?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Hi Bill. Thanks for your comment! You are right, it is a good idea to use the threadlocker in this case. Another option is to recheck the torque periodically.

[@truthhurts228]

@@MorozovAutomotive Hi again, I perused for video again this morning and got my factory roof racks installed very quickly thanks to your stellar video/tutorial. Your video made my install seamless and quite easy. Thanks bro, keep those videos coming. 5 star review from me. Rock on bro! Bill

[@philipl1302]

@@truthhurts228 Do you have panoramic roof? I am having difficult time finding information on if these bars work with panoramic roof or not. Thank you

[@truthhurts228]

Yes I do have the panoramic roof and the factory cross bars fit perfectly and do not affect the opening sun roof. Good luck!

[@franks.591]

Thank you for your good presentation. B.T.W. - the roof bars look very good on the RAV4! Using threadlocker is really overdone! Most of all screw connections are save in case of using the right torque! The other side - most screw locks are scare locks. If a screw connection loosens by itself due to vibration, then it is incorrectly dimensioned. You can believe an old assembler 😁! Please note that you have to tighten the screw connection by hand with a s m a l l screw wrench (Attention - after tight comes fast loose 😅!) Normaly the manufacturer of roof bars recommend about 5 ... 6 Nm for the screw connections. This is really not much!!! You can check it with a small torque wrench. If you use the roof bars for a long time (for example in winter) then it is rather better you will put a small film of grease on the screw connection than you will use threadlocker. The most important possebility for the security of screw connections is the torque! Threadlocker (like "Loctite" and so on ...) is for connections you will normally not unmount - for exmple a joint assembly on a garden chair. The most screw connections in the world which are provided for mounting and unmounting need grease and the right torque! That`s all ...

[@RichS.74yroldbodybuilder]

Excellent video👍🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@nixvet1]

You always have Great video and a good selection of accessories. Do you know what the thread count is on the bolt to secure to the car? Thank you.

[@jskaggs8188]

Those look exactly like the oem cross bars I just installed on my 2023.

[@3dEmil]

I'm considering roof bike rack that can be locked to protect the bikes but with this rack a thief can easily disassemble it. Is there an anti-theft bolt and tool for it?

[@jamesbarnes6232]

Super helpful, thank you!

[@WladimirPeshkov]

Очень хорошее качество. Цена тоже)

[@spicymustard9066]

Just an FYI - I have a 2022 Rav4 most base model (LE 2WD Gas) and it has a bare roof. No rails, no inserts for rails, nothing for the crossbars to connect to. Ive been searching for some type of compatible system with the naked roof, but having lots of difficulty finding anything

[@leoxu1299]

will it hold a motorcycle? or a set of medium sofa?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Maximum load capacity - 160 lbs.

[@omarvelasco8734]

The 2023 LE doesn't come with roof rack mounts 😭

[@sasar9806]

Hi! Thanks for your video(s). Very informative! Quick question: on these cross bars, are you able to put the Thule Cylinder instead of the provided plastic "lock"? I searched extensively, but wasn't able to find anything. This would help those with multiple thule accessories using a one-key system. Thanks in advance!

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Thanks! I am not exactly sure but most likely they are of different size.

[@richardrafter274]

Do you know the Rubber lock number? Need to get some.

[@RebMordechaiReviews]

My Rav4 simply has rubber strips running down the right and left, that's almost flush with the roof. So, I need the two bars fitted before I can install the roof rack. Is that possible?

[@manuels.2050]

Mine doesn't even have the rubber, I'm looking into installing what's called "roof rails" thats that part he installed the crossbars onto. Not sure if its going to work and I dont like the fact that I'll have to drill holes straight through my vehicle.

[@callmebackfriday2]

Thanks for the video.

[@JReynolds09]

Will this cause my 2019 XLE to leak into the roof headliner?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

No.

[@axdc1085]

You're from Vancouver? I can hear the skytrain lol

[@Anavllama]

I note they offer a silver option. Would that look really bad on your silver Rav4?

[@josearocho473]

Goood. Nice

[@1974sergios]

I lost the key, where can I get a new one?

[@rafee371]

I have the same for some reason I can’t turn the lock

[@tbuckner4905]

wonder if mine need to be tightened? I bought my rav4 with the roof bars already attached. they make a lot of noise in the wind though. on the driver side it rattles

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Yep, I would check if they are tight enough.

[@henribrillon4240]

What trim of Toyota RAV4 was shown in this video? LE, XLE, Trail or Limited?

[@manuelgomez6133]

If racks removed. Will it cause any sort of leaking from roof?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

No, it won't.

[@fazlayrabbee2833]

Do you know if I can move the roof rack a little bit back cuz it’s on top of sunroof

[@MorozovAutomotive]

No, you can't move it back.

[@JGYokohama1]

Is it easy to install/uninstall as needed without damaging anything? I see only needing these a couple times a year.

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Yes, once they are fully assembled, you can easily remove and install them within minutes.

[@JGYokohama1]

@@MorozovAutomotive any leak concerns? I see the rails sometimes leak. Thanks

[@MorozovAutomotive]

@@JGYokohama1 No, luckily we did not have this problem.

[@ErrydayYe]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mattpitzer5566]

So the max load capacity is 160lbs but Toyota says the roof weight limit is 101.9lbs. Does that mean you can only put 101.9lbs on the roof even with the crossbars?

[@YYY-nj9wq]

Please search Dynamic Weight vs Static Weight. You will get the answer yourself. Should be OK to take more weight.

[@КанадскийСварщик]

My moonroof is leaking during the rain. Do You have moonroof?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Yes we do. Our moonroof does not leak. I would try to see if the drain tubes in the moonroof are clogged.

[@КанадскийСварщик]

@MorozovAutomotive water just seepage beetwen rubber sealent on moonroof and metal roof. It's dropping in c-chanel, probably It's drainage

[@gandalFF85]

what size are those bolts? Ordered mine thru amazon w/o them I guess

[@MorozovAutomotive]

M8-1.25 X 45mm.

[@akalongman]

Why dont use OEM Toyota Crossbars?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

You can. OEM products are usually more pricey. This is a cheaper alternative.

[@akalongman]

@@MorozovAutomotive so this cheaper alternative is not better than OEM

[@MorozovAutomotive]

@@akalongman OEM parts by default provide the best quality. Aftermarket parts most of the time are fine but sometimes there can be issues. As for the crossbars shown in the video, we never had any problems with them.

Toyota should take a hint from Volvo; their crossbars are so easy-peasy to install.

[@nmknmk2371]

I was very nervous putting my brand new beach cruiser on this rack. kzbin.infoUgkxG6JIgwJhur8_Rg8UeQ3EmePzi_wSncL8 But after reading many reviews I decided to get this one and take a chance. When arrived it was very simple to adjust and put together. I also added spike tape over the metal hooks before securing and tightening the straps, and no scratches. I also purchased the top bar made by the same company so that my cruiser sits straight on the rack without having to turn upside down. Extra bungee cords are used to secure the front wheel from flapping and even piece of mind knowing your bike is secure. Definitely recommend...
