Universal Roof Rack Cross Bars, 48'' Adjustable Aluminum Lockable Crossbars W/Extendable Window Frame & Dual Key, Upgraded Rooftop Luggage Crossbars Set for Bare Roof Cars Trucks, 165 LBS Max Load

My friend installed but its sturdy and does the job:) I carry my work table for fixing window screens or my surfboard.

Item was poorly documented for assembly but eventually it was sorted out. Images were very tiny and hard to interpret for key information on which direction certain parts were meant to go and text was very vague. After struggling to get it right, ratchets were a challenge to operate as they would slip and difficult to loosen to properly center rack, despite following directions. - which were also poorly documented and vague. Key port covers were flimsy and several broke off. Even though it was eventually assembled correctly after several attempts and failing (ratchets would simply slide around if ribbed metal strap was upside down , it came loose during packing when we secured items to them with bungees and straps. The metal hooks simply slipped off from the frames around the doors, bending open. We ended up putting a blanket on roof and just strapping through car with doors open. I’m not sure how to offer a constructive critique of this product to improve its function. It was a disappointment.

These are pretty sturdy! I have a 65 lb kayak on the roof of my Sentra using these cross bars. I’ve driven 100+ miles easily. They connect pretty quickly and hold tight. You can even lock them in place with the key so everything is solid in place.

Great product. One of the best designs of attaching it to the roof. Super easy to use and adjust. Biggest feature over others.. is it tightens to the roof vs a strap tightening to it

Product easy to install, easy to take off, materials looks good, hope will last

I am going to say something good first about this product. I did not have that hard of a time putting together and installing initially. Similar to an piece of furniture with many pieces, I had to take some time to understand and then it all made sense. Also, once installed they performed their job.BUT I can't recommend this product. The first one sent to me was missing pieces and the plastic housing was damaged. The one they sent as a replacement also had damaged housing and other pieces. I tried it anyway, but then I returned it. The plastic is so cheap it simply will not hold up to occasional use. So while the product will work, it will be broken quicker than you would like. Possibly being stuck to your roof. The housing will not hold up, making it cheap looking on your car. The idea behind this is good, if it was executed better. I would pay $100 more for an item like this that has a mechanism that is usable and hardened plastics that would last. It would be worth it, as it is...it would simply be an inevitable aggravation that would need to be replaced rather quickly.

Edit: Seller reached out to me and was very apologetic regarding my experience with this product. My primary concern is the fact that the method this rack uses to secure itself to the vehicle is flawed and released with a very low effort tug.I have a 2008 Nissan Maxima for reference.My original product evaluation retains it's -2/10But customer service 16/10.Original review BelowI tried mounting these on my car but I might as well strapped duct tape and a bed frame to my roof for how well they actually hold a load down. "Strong ratchet system of aluminum alloy" my buttocks. I couldn't even get the bar to fully seat, let alone hold. A swift upward pull and the "Ratchet system" fully released. I'm glad I attempted to mount these to my roof WEEKS in advance of a camping trip as the first speed bump and my rack would've ripped right off my roof, dumping all my carefully packed suppliesThese hunks of junk aren't worth the scrap metal put into making them. Hopefully Amazon lets me return them for a refund. I don't know what DMV certification these things have, but they are neither safe NOR universal.-2/10

Fits great over the doors I wish I could have trimmed it by an inch or two for the back rack but it is not adjustable. Still fits but not as well, great option for the price.
