Silver Roof Rack Compatible with RAV4 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Roof Side Rails Cross Bars Luggage Rack Baggage Cargo Carrier

Side rails fit perfectly on our 2018 RAV4. Instructions could have been better, but after reading the reviews we knew what to expect. I would suggest that the entire rails be put together before going to the vehicle. The four metal "feet" can first be attached to the rails, then the 8 small oval rubber pads onto the bottom of the bolt holes on the feet, then the large soft rubbery pads can be put on the feet around where the oval pads have been placed. You are then ready to go to the car: take off the four plastic molding covers from the roof, unscrew the 8 bolts from the car and remove the brackets (which can be popped up with a screwdriver); then, place the rails onto the car and screw in with the bolts that came with the rails (the rubber washer will go directly against the top of the "feet" and then the metal washer and then the bolt). Then pop on the hard plastic covers for the feet and you are done. The only tool that you will need is a rachet wrench set -- you won't be able to get at the bolts on the car with just a crescent wrench or vice grips. Also, I didn't bother with the white tube of what is apparently silicon -- the rubber should provide a sufficiently tight seal against water getting into the frame of the car.

The side rails I received had been used and one rail was defective, which I didn't realize until I installed it. There were no instructions on the used pair or the new replacement. There were parts in the box that I had no idea as to where they belong. I wouldn't purchase this brand.They have been on my RAV4 for a a little over a year and now they are discoloring. They are turning yellow.I don not recommend buying these!

Installation was pretty easy and took about 30 minutes.Two negative things are, the package came with a tube of silicon that didn’t have a label and the instructions didn’t show anything about what it’s used for. The instructions didn’t talk about the installation of the rubber fest that it came with.Also, the 4 end pieces don’t seem to snap in place very well so they don’t feel very secure. I’m hoping they don’t fly off at some point.

Boyfriend and I put these on my 2015 Toyota Rav4. Took a little bit due to no instructions at all. Found a YouTube video that had no sound to it. But overall it is a good product after figuring out how to put it together and on the vehicle!

Looks good. Came with everything needed. Rav4 comes with premade bolt holes so installation was a breeze. Just remove the little trim brackets covering the 4 bolt areas, remove the bolts and the black brackets. Clean the dust off, and put the rubber washer over the white plastic tubing , with the metal holes side up, ideally, for a better fit. The rails are labeled. Put the rubber on the rails and bolt the things down with a ratchet. It came with a unlabeled tube of , i assume, Silicone sealant, just in case. Feels sturdy and the color matches the antenna.

easy to install,sturdy for the price,definitely recommend.

It is not worth buying. Save a little more and buy OEM rails. Paint does not long as long, and it starts to rust after 2 years.

Instructions leave a lot of steps out and don't cover some of the parts that are included in the package. Found a youtube video that covered the steps very well. When done, looks good, just like OEM. Good value for the money.
