#Thule kayak rack install
The foot pack was simple to install and stays rock solid, I check and tighten periodically but they've never been close to loose. I use the rapid traverse foot pack and aero blade bars. I started by eye and refined it by measurement, and put a sharpie marker on the bottom in case I have to remove them, done and done. I'm mechanically inclined so it was maybe a 10 minute bump in the road, just had to figure out what measurement would be equal from the end of the bar to the edge of the foot on each side of the car, and beware, the front and rear bar measurements will not be the same. Not even worth taking a star off in my opinion, but I can understand if someone were confused or unhappy. One caveat is the measurements in the instructions to install the bars are wrong, not really sure where they came up with those (or maybe there were for a different length bar? I went with 60" which seem perfect for my van) but after a little finagling was able to get them evenly set up on my own. Thule is the only brand that makes a foot pack for the Quest, and luckily, it's really good.

Mine is no exception, no roof rails even.

I bought a used Nissan Quest minivan from Hertz auto sales which was a great experience, highly recommended, but the downside of buying a used rental car is you often get a base model with very few options.
