Today on our 2014 Volkswagen Jetta, well be test fitting the Thule Traverse Roof Rack
System, using part numbers THLB50, TH480 and THKIT1618. Well begin our test fit by first
placing the front load bar on to the front of our roof. Well then to measure 10 inches
from the front part of the glass to the leading edge of the foot pack. Well make this measurement
on both the passenger and driver side of the vehicle to ensure the front load bar is perpendicular
to the roof of our Jetta. With the front load bar in place, we can use the included tensioning
tool to tighten down the black bolt to bring the clips up tightly against the roof line.
Now with the front load bar in position, we can take the round black rubber seal to go
in between the two felt seals of the door.Well repeat the same process to the other side.
