I ordered two thinking that the kit came with only 1 pair. The description didn't say how many were in the package. Turns out, it is a full set of four (2 for front bar, 2 for back bar). I'm sending 1 set back. I was able to set up the pick-up on-line, but will be out almost $7 for the pick-up since I'm a park ranger in a remote location and a ways from a UPS store. So, learn from my mistake: The fit kit is a full set of four.

First things first, use Thule's fit guide to get all of the items that you need: [...]

My wife pitched the idea of buying a car topper to free up room in our Ford Focus for an upcoming 11 hour car ride with 2 dogs. After a lot of research, paying closer attention to other vehicle racks around town, and trying to think of the best use of my money I settled on Thule (apparently pronounced "tool-ey"). The final selling point was the wide variety of products they sold that can be reused easily on other cars and with other products. For example, I could use the car topper and then use a bike rack, raft rack, or just the bar to transport plywood, etc.

I ended up purchasing the custom feet pack, aero bars, rapid traverse feet, locks, and cargo box. Although we spent several hundred dollars on everything if we wanted to use these products on our Scion all we have to do is buy the customer feet pack at ~$70. The custom feet pack come with the specific measurement and placement of the feet and bars. Follow the instructions and the install will go smoothly with some time. Once you have it figured out installing and remove the bar and box will take 2 minutes. During our trip we removed the cargo box and I was able to easily do it by myself in a few minutes. The entire setup survived a 22 hour round trip at highway speeds up to 80 mph. The box also sat in the rain overnight and went through rain on the road and the contents stayed dry. Setup stayed in place, tight and secure, and did not scratch the paint.

I installed racks for an outdoor store for several years, both Yakima and Thule. The fix-points found in some car models make this process much easier, and Thule's Fit Kits allow their different rack feet (460, 460R, etc) to mount to those fix-point systems.

Thule's website specified the 3080 Fit Kit for our 2010 Mazda5, so I ordered it here even though I knew the stock photo Amazon was using could not be correct as the bracket shown would never fit the Mazda5. I was right, as the 3080 Fit Kit I received looked different from the photo but fit the car perfectly.

Installation literally took 15 minutes from the time I opened the boxes.

To Install:
-Slide the 460 Podium Feet onto the bars
-Attach the Thule Fit Kit brackets to their bases (they just click in)
-Attach the Thule Fit Kit brackets to the Podium Feet with the supplied screws, but do not tighten
-Screw the supplied Fix Point screws into your vehicles Fix Points (follow Thule's directions)
-Set the Podium Feet over the Fix Point screws
-Adjust the crossbars so they stick out evenly on both sides, then fully tighten the Fit Kit screws to the Podium Feet
-Put the supplied hardware (lock washer and nut in my case) onto the Fix Point screw, and fully tighten
-Place the locks into the Podium Feet covers and lock them onto the Podium Feet, pop the end caps onto the bars

This system eliminates a TON of measuring and making the minute adjustments that racks such as Yakima's Q-towers require. Of course your vehicle needs the Fix Point attachments to make use of this system, but it's a very solid system and makes rack installation very easy.

With Thule systems like this you need at least three separate components - the universal rack "posts," a pair of cross bars, and a "fitment" kit specific to your car/truck. With Thule, locks are almost always sold separately, as are the rack carrier components, of course - don't expect locks with this kit or the posts. Good news is you can order locks by code so all of your stuff works with a common key.

This is just the fitment kit and it fits 2009 and newer Toyota Prius to the Thule Rapid System 700 (series) - used to be called the Traverse - post and bar system. The rear pads are identical, but each front pad is custom - and it does matter where they go. So either figure out a way to mark them permanently (the kit does come with stickers, but I don't see that as a permanent solution) or keep the (nearly useless) instructions with the fit kit. This system is pricey, but it works extremely well. Been a Thule owner for almost 20 years, and once you've taken the plunge, it's dumb to start mixing things up - their stuff always works with their stuff, and more commonly, with other brands too. Positioning on the car requires measuring, but I didn't find it to be super critical (except width between posts) and a paper tape measure is included. My car has a sunroof and the instructions warn against trying to use the sunroof with the rack system installed since the installed posts will interfere with the glass.

While the base rack system's load capacity is spec'd at 75kg (160 lbs), for some reason the capacity is limited to 50kg (110 lbs) when using this kit and others like it. Not sure if that's a limitation caused by the vehicle or the kit. In any case it works well.
