Whether you’re gearing up for weekend adventures or prepping your vehicle for daily gear hauling, a Thule roof rack system is one of the most versatile upgrades you can make. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the exact steps to find, customize, and purchase a Thule crossbar system — specifically focusing on the Thule Evo Complete Roof Rack — on RackWarehouse.com.

Step 1: Understand What You’re Buying — The Thule Evo Complete Roof Rack

The Thule Evo Complete Roof Rack on RackWarehouse is a full base rack system that includes:

A pair of load bars (your choice of style)

Optional accessories like locks and a wind fairing

You can tailor the rack to your vehicle and needs before checkout.

This all-in-one system eliminates guesswork because it bundles everything you need — no separate feet or bars to hunt down.

Step 2: Use the Fit Guide Before You Shop

Right at the top of the product page, RackWarehouse lets you enter your year/make/model so they can customize the Thule Evo system for your vehicle.

The recommended bar length is automatically selected

The correct foot pack style loads for your roof type

You’re building a system that’s designed to fit your exact vehicle

Why it matters: This fit data ensures you don’t accidentally buy bars that are too short or feet that won’t attach.

Tip: If you aren’t sure what roof type you have (bare roof, raised rails, flush rails, etc.), check the vehicle manual or use RackWarehouse’s “fit guide” feature — it’s your first step.

Once you input your vehicle, you’ll choose which load bars you want in your Thule Evo kit. Typical options include:

Each bar style has different advantages, but all are compatible with the Evo complete rack system.

Pro tip: Unless you have a specific reason to go square or pro, WingBar Evo is the most popular choice for daily use and accessories.

After selecting your bars, you’ll see options like:

Thule lock cores — to lock the rack to your vehicle

AirScreen wind fairing — reduces noise and increases efficiency

These accessories are optional, but recommended by experienced installers.

Before you add the system to your cart, double check:

Once that’s done, click Add to Cart — you’re almost there!

RackWarehouse offers benefits many shoppers overlook:

After purchase, you’ll receive your rack components and can follow your in-house video (like the one you linked in your prompt) or the printed instructions that come in the box.

Install bars only after confirming correct placement distance

By following these steps — starting with the RackWarehouse fit guide, selecting the right bars and accessories, and completing checkout — you’re setting yourself up for a high-performance roof rack installation.
