The Thule website has information on ordering the appropriate model fit kit and length of bar for your specific vehicle. You will also need to purchase WingBars that are able to fit your vehicle's width (go to Thule's website for details on ordering your kit). It is understandable why they sell them separately, since these are really the only pieces of this kit that are one size fits all, but I think they ought to be more clear in their description of each part! These clamps arrived a week before we needed them for a cross-sectional test of the cable Our plans had changed from moving across the country to moving across country so we still had time to buy and ship the proper fit pack (we already knew the wingbars are separate)! Despite the graphics here showcasing *all three* items in one place, you must purchase each item This means that the "fit kit" is likely about the same price as the clamp, and the bar is about the same cost as well. If you're spending a lot on this roof system and any belongings you might probably fasten to it, it would be prudent to also purchase a FOURTH item, the "key kit" so the clamps will lock down with a key in the closed position on your vehicle.

In the box was an used Thule clamp foot pack and there was no key. The box was correct, but inside was an used Thule clamp foot pack which was a different model with locks. My WingEVO bars that I had ordered from Amazon did not work with this item. The time I spent was a waste of time, as was the money Amazon spent.
In fact, the installation goes smoothly, but the measurements are somewhat difficult to nail down. There is some finagling to do to get them just.
