Looking for ski racks for 2007 TL-S
Hello everyone!
Trying to find ski/snowboard racks for my recently bought 07 TLs. Does anyone have it already installed or used before? I did google search but getting tired of surfing the web. Anyones help really appreciated.
I still have ski racks from my 02 TLs, not sure if they fit
Thank you...

Hey,
I have an 06TL and ended up getting a ski/snowboard rack last year. Thought I had a pic of it, but can't find it...anyway...
This shows what you can get...

Like yourself, I had to research a lot, but figured it out in the end and this is what I got:
Thule 400XT Aero Foot Pack
Thule LB58 58 Inch Load Bars
Thule Universal Flat Top Ski Carrier # 91725
Thule 544 4-pack Lock Cores - personal preference, probably worth the piece of mind at $50
Do not get the
Thule 477 Short Roofline Adapter
It is not necessary for skis/boards, they originally told me to get it, but I realized I don't need it, so $135 back in pocket.
The initial set up took maybe an hour, was a little difficult to put it on, and I took my time, but now I only slap it on whenever I go skiing, takes about 10 minutes. It can fit up to 6 skis or 4 snowboards. I've had 4 skis and 2 snowboards on it, you can stack em. Haven't had any issues, only concern is you shouldn't be going over 80 due to resistance, but I have not had issues, although I try to stay below...
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
Bring on the POW!!!!
