I watch this every night before falling asleep
XDDDD
A
Q😊
Literally in bed falling asleep as this pops up 😂
😂😂😂😂
Fantastic video. But you guys put the FL and FR clamps at the wrong end of the bar. :)
Hats off to the folks who made this video. Perhaps the best tutorial I've ever seen. Bravo.
When I first started unboxing my new rack kit I was getting extremely frustrated with the written instructions. I noticed the QR code and happened upon this video. The relief I feel watching this video is immeasurable, and the sounds are so satisfying. I’m watching this on full volume. This video changed my life for the better.
Same. Exactly the same.
Same
Can you insert pads between the clamp to protect the paintwork? Particularly for the hook that goes under the top of the door.
I would NOT have been able to assemble my Thule system without this helpful video.
The included instructions in the box do NOT show me I have to split the centre rubber.
Many thanks.
We are happy that the video made it more clear for you! :)
I love the noises !!
That's only because the instruction manual has zero words in it! I'm still frustrated, they just have my money already and I'm smart enough to deal with it, but it makes me uneasy that I'll be installing this myself without real instruction.
Can you stick a tentbox on these as I've read they advise rails also. Cheers!
Im a bit confused by the video. It says that the "pointy" end of the bar should be facing backwards, but at 1:51 when the front left clamp slides on it looks opposite. What is correct?
Hi Lars! Just as you have mentioned, the "pointy" end of the bars should be facing backwards and the round edge forward. If you have any further questions then please reach our to us on support@thule.com
@@thulethis is absolutely wrong, unless you are mistaking what was meant by “pointy” end. The more tapered end or pointy in would face forward or it would defeat the whole purpose of this design, to be aerodynamic. Now if you meant the points on the rubber facing back, then that’s correct. Those even act as arrows to point towards the back.
@@nihilisticpunk24 Think of it like an airplane wing, Thule Wingbar. The thicker end i facing forward and the thinner backward.
This is the coolest video like this 👍
This is what I call clear instructions, amazing
Why don't you have a disclaimer about the FL FR mistake!!?? Goodness. I thought I was going crazy. (otherwise nice video)
Still use the instructions with the video as some parts are number specific to front and rear bars.
How much would it actually cost Thule to provide written instructions in various languages?
Hello Paul! Please feel free to contact us if you need any assistance or have any questions regarding installing roof racks on your car. You can email us at: support@thule.com.
I bought this kit for my KIA EV6. Assembly was a piece of cake with the video but I hardly dare to put the clamps on since they do not have any rubber protection. So it’s just the metal clamp (seen at 1:02) that directly sits on the sheet of the car. Is that how it was designed to be?
Is it just me or is part of the video wrong. Where the first 'foot' is attached to the bar it shows the Front Left foot, but it looks as though the bar would be the wrong way around with the narrow end, not the wide, facing forward?
Hey Richard, you are right. Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. We will fix this in the future.
Glad to have seen this comment as my fiancé noticed the same problem. It is incorrect in the printed manual. Thanks Richard!!
ThuleBringYourLife ... so what is the future, we are 2 months later, and I was fooled by this wrong instruction... it is quite annoying to remove the caps (indeed in the printed manual it is wrong as well)
I agree. This seems like a major mistake & the corporate reaction is "we'll fix it in the next video". And when will the written instructions be fixed? How many hours of frustration has this caused to thousands of buyers?
@@djsqaired6644 A major mistake would be if parts were missing. Most people seem to catch this issue.
Are these racks adjustable or vehicle specific?
I wish all instructions would be like this
best assembly video i have ever seen. Well done.
Happy that you liked the video Ivan! We wish you a great day / Thule
Excellent for my Audi Q8 e-tron.
Quite therapeutic. Excellent instruction 👍🏻
Thank you Tony! :)
When I bought a second hand Camry the owner gave me this roof rack but assembled wrong.... all wrong. It doesn't fit and missing parts and keys... I have to disassemble first....Sigh......... How....
Hello Tiger! Sorry to hear that there are some issues with your roof racks. If you need any assistance then please don´t hesitate to contact our support team thru this link: thuleab.force.com/hc/s/?language=en_GB
and they would be happy to take a look.
Hope this can be sorted for you!
Best, Thule
Be careful using this video *only* . For some vehicles, there are different rubber pads for different positions on the vehicle (FL, fr, rl, rr) and the clamps that reach down to the window frame likewise differ. The video makes no mention of this!
Nice Video. I suppose those long Swedish winters come in handy when making videos everyone can understand. Well done.
Golf Mk 7 5 door hatchback. Is it really just 60kg including the rack? Weight bearing capacity of the roof is 75kg. Also is this meant as dynamic weight restriction only or also static (want to use the bars with a rooftent)
Hi Tom! Please turn to our customer support team that can help you with your questions. You can reach them on: support.thule.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new They will be happy to assist you. Kind regards, Thule
My bmw 5 touring ‘16 has no roof rails…. Is there any kit that goes with this evo clamp? Buyer’s guide doesn’t show any useful results
Would these clamps scratch my paint?
No. I don't think they'd sell many of these if they did. The metal clamps are coated in a rubbery material, but they won't come in forceful contact with the paint if installed correctly.
Well done, but I am a human being who enjoys interaction with actual talking people who have more than AI skills.
The only thing I don't understand is why you gave this video a title. It was so close to being absolutely wordless... just got my first Thule product and I'm hoping the very lame instructions are a testament to the confidence that Thule has in its product. They look great, and easy enough to install.. but seriously a word spoken or written would have gone a long way in my opinion.
For a 2020 US Nissan Sentra, which clamps kit is right? And its length of the bars
Please use our buyer´s guide on our website to see which roof racks that is recommended for your car www.thule.com/en-gb/buyers-guide . Just fill in your cars specifics and the options will show / Thule team
Please help at 00:45 it shows the key barrels being inserted . They don’t seem to fit on mine , any tips please
Incomplete video. It doesn’t explain which rubber foot to put where (they’re not symmetrical) and the “clicking” insert at 0:57-1:02 is not happening with my EVO Clamp.
The exact car specific details on your car you need to refer to the Kit manual about. THere it states where each part goes.
IKEA levels of laziness when it comes to actually explaining how to do this complicated procedure.
Also, my roof rack kit didn't come with a control key, and this video neither indicates you need one, or explains what to do if you don't have one - which is a situation customers will definitely be in when you ship the product without one. This is appalling bad. I'm going to stop here, because I am confident that small but important stuff like that is going to come up throughout the entire install process, which BTW I'm using other videos for, made by people who are actually explaining what to do. Next time I need a rack or other equipment, I'm definitely going to check out the competition because this is just leaving a bad taste.
I've gone from a Seat Leon estate with roof rails, to a Seat Leon hatch with these type of bars. The only thing that concerns me is will the metal clamps once tightened, damage the paintwork of the car? The clamps do seem coated with a layer of paint themselves so is that enough to prevent them rubbing the paintwork under the door frame?
When installing a clamp roof rack it is important to clean the surface and the roof rack before installing it. The clamps have rubberized paint covering the metal to prevent scratches.
The measurements for the Evo X (scale) of 45 on the Mazda CX-30 don't appear to be correct - the car is too wide at this point for the clamp kit to fit. The rubber feet are quite a way from sitting snugly to the car roof contours at this point.
Hi Mark! We would love to take a look at this and help out. Please contact us thru this link: thuleab.force.com/hc/s/contactsupport?language=en_GB
Don´t forget to specify the country you are located in and then an agent will assist you further.
Still dont inderstand xy scale. If x is the width of the roof then the numbers on the bars dont make sense. It was easier if they made a tab with car models/x numbers
Hi there Alessandro! We would be happy to assist you, please contact us on support@thule.com and our support team will help you. Thank you!
I installed these but they make alot of noise when I drive on the highway, around 100km/hour, almost like a winter windstorm sound and it is quite annoying and very loud... any idea whats wrong with installation?
The noise level is dependent of the type of bar you have, Thule Wingbar is the one with the lowest noise level for example. THe placement of the bars on the car can also impact the noise level and if you have a railing on the car you can try moving the rack slightly backwards.
@@thule I fixed it. Turns out the first bar was reversed... and I pushed them slightly backwards. No more noise. Thank you.
Rather written instructions. Anyone know where to get them?
It comes in the box or you can download them from thule.com
My kit did not come with 2 keys.
Hi, does this system work on 2015 Nissan Juke?

Why can't you just provide proper instructions in the pack? They are worse than cheap Chinese instructions. Pathetic for such a big company.

Great video! Can I use Thule Evo Clamp on my BMW X4 2022 M with the panoramic roof and without roof racks?
Can I also use it with my Thule box 450L?
Hello Marko, happy to hear that you are interested in Thule Evo Clamp! We advise you to use our Buyer´s Guide: www2.thule.com/en-gb/buyers-guide?c=roof+racks
Please fill in the specifics of your car and all options and components will be listed there.
Best, Thule
Jetta 2019 and up measurements are not ok!!!
Holds bikes great
My foot kit didn't come with a key/locks.. is that sold separately?
Yes, it IS sold separately
Mine did come with key locks, in the box.
Mine came with keys in the box too although I bought a bundle so I think that may be why. You can get them separately though I think.
Only if you bought a bundle. Otherwise, they're sold separately. It's confusing since the instructions that come with the individual items suggest that locks are included.
Easy to use and no scratches
Will this work for 2022 Dodge Durango?
Please use the car guide in the roof rack section on thule.com to find the correct roof rack for your car.
@@thule there’s no confirmed fit, thank you though.
The fact that the kit is split up from the clamps is INSANE
It is not insanity, it is actually ingenious! That way we can produce car specific and safe roof racks at a lower cost since we can use the foot for many more cars to keep the cost and resource use lower. Then you can also more easily switch between cars and buy less new products that in the long run is better for the environment and your economy.
@@thule roof specific? What about the roof of my car? Car has no rails of fixing points. BMW f11 2016. Search for any possible combination… no luck
What's the name of the X4 piece?
Since there are five parts marked with X4 it is hard to help. Please send in your question through our support pages on thule.com.
If i Lost my manual with dimensions then What ?
I´m sorry to hear that! Then please contact our customer support that will be able to send one over to you. You can reach them at support.thule.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new I hope you will have your manual soon :) / Thule team
ASMR for men :-)
Can you detach just the actual bars after they've been attached?
I'd imagine that would be rather difficult.
Poor video to match the poor instructions. Need a video where someone actually speaks. The XY dimensions don't make sense either. I feel pain for the general consumer if a jet engine assembler has a hard time understanding the assembly.
We´re sorry to hear if you are experiencing issues with our instructions. We would love to assist you if you have any questions regarding your assembly. Please submit your enquiry thru this link here: thuleab.force.com/hc/s/contactsupport?language=en_GB
Don´t forget to specify the country you are located in. Then an agent will get back to you and help. - Thank you!
A prova di scemo… 🤟🤟
Is it safe for paint?
I’ve looked everywhere for instructions on the distances between bars and positioning… from the front… information is near impossible to find!! Do a better job at basics
The information is in the instructions for the car specific kit.
hello!
how kit i can install to honda stream 2009 year?
