Not OP but I bought the Yakima system instead, since Thule is not available.

Why is this so hard to find. I looked everywhere and cannot find a used one. Maybe someone here knows if a similar fit kit will fit the GS with little modifications.

I have my Thule rack from my old 2006 BMW 3 series and it was a bolt on type straight to the body by lifting up a door in the rain gutter trim. Im seriously thinking about drilling a hole in the lex to make this fit.

Any help out there. Dont want to shell a couple hundred for a Yakima since i have all the Thule accessories already

Most Thule accessories should fit on Yakima bars. The only difference is that they are round instead of square, which benefits a Thule-on-Yakima setup.
