Have you considered installing a hitch? That's a cleaner option than a rack.
I pull a mini trailer in the RX if we need to haul stuff. Originally bought it for the Prius we used to own, LOL.

You need qtowers, 48" cross bars, and 4 Q111 mounting clips (sold in packs of 2) and locks/keys if you wish and whatever board mount you choose to use.
Buy new or used, a retailer, ebay, craigslist or forums.
Gotta brag, I recently put together a set up for myself;
Qtowers + 58" bars + locks + 1 key + non-IS300 q-clips and feet pads + kayak saddles $80
Brand new Q111 clips 2 boxes with pads, sticker and instructions $25
Brand new BVG/Inno snowboard rack missing key $20
Used Thule cargo box missing key $05
Key from Inno direct $11
Key from Thule direct $07
= $148
Sold kayak saddles on eBay which netted me ~$104 after fees & shipping.
$148 -104 = $44 for my complete set up. Gotta love it!
I missed an earlier deal on a brand new complete system (qtowers, crossbars, locks and keys, fairing and qclips for a different car) for $160 when the seller sold it to someone else right before I got to his house. I was mad about that but this makes up for it.

what exactly are you asking? The Yakima Q towers have been the same design for a while, so you can easily pick up a set used. They don't change year to year. The Q clips are different for every model generation.

Not too bad. I am in the process of looking at one or a hitch like my solara I had. Roof rack are a rivers dream come true. One minute it's there and the next it's stolen -_-
