Question mileage affected ?

Normally Cross Rails lower the mpg by 2-3 mpg. Would you let us know what kind of mpg you are fetting?

YMMV,

No plans to remove them, but I assume that’s what the lock is for?
May I ask you how much did they cost?

Install by myself took about 10 min. It is really that simple

would you mind posting a copy of the instructions? Thanks.

This place comes highly recommended by many, and I've now made several purchase from them without issue. I also snagged a pair at that $263 price - but it was on sale in early July and that has since expired. And... if the link ends up not working, it's Bell Lexus of North Scottsdale.

I have a ten year old Thule Rack Attack cargo box. It’s 6’ x 32” and fits just fine.

Default Activity Mount

Can you please tell me where you purchased the Activity Mount. The dealerships are telling me that they can only order it as a replacement part. Thanks in advance.

@OPorz I have an NX being delivered in the next few weeks and am trying to sort out the roof rack situation for ski season. Our NX has a panoramic moon roof and the dealer is telling us that they can not install cross rails on the car because of the glass. It looks like yours also has the panoramic roof. Have you noticed any interference with the pano roof and the cross rails?

Yours is the only image that I can find of the new NX with this setup. We're just trying to figure out why Lexus is saying they won't install it for us... Even if it means we can't open the moon roof with the rails installed. They are even saying there is no part number for the cross rails for our vehicle.

We do have the panoramic moon roof and the rails do not impact its operation. Our Lexus dealer installed the rails.

That's what I was hoping to hear, thanks! I'm still not sure why our dealership is saying that this part does not exist. I guess I'll be ordering it online.
