Today on our 2012 Toyota Camry, well be test fitting the Yakima Q Towers with Round Bar
Roof Racking System, Part Numbers Y00409, Y00605, Y00716 and Y00124.Now, with our fifth
kit, our crossbars and our Q towers already assembled according to the included instructions.
Well begin our test fit by placing the front cross bar on to the front of the vehicle.
Well then measure from the first part of the glass to the first part of the tower.Well
measure this on both the passenger and driver side of the vehicle, ensuring that the front
crossbar is perpendicular and the pads at the bottom of the Q tower is contoured to
the roofline of our Camry correctly.Once weve established this position, we can then tighten
down the silver hand bolts on the inside of the Q towers and clamp on the black lever
securing the front crossbar to the front of the vehicle. Well now place our rear crossbar
on to the rear of our roof.Well then measure the crossbar spread. Now, the crossbar spread
is an important measurement once using roof rack accessories. The roof rack spread is
the measurement from the center of the front crossbar to the center
of the rear crossbar.
