    I have OEM base bars for my car and really need the snowboard/ski attachment. I know Thule ones will work I'm just wondering what models work. I saw some pics of other members with this setup so I know it works. Thanks in advance.

    You can get adapters for anything. I went with the Yakima FatCat 6 for looks/aerodynamics.

    This is what you're looking for:

    Any retailer that sells Thule stuff should be able to help you (bike shop, sporting goods store, etc)

    sammy7 did you apply that set up for the OEM rack? Because in classifieds there are a lot of inexpensive Thule racks for sale locally

    Crossbars come in three different types: round, square and a squashed oval. Thule and Yakima are pretty much interchangeable, so I don't think you'd have a problem with a Thule rack on OEM crossbars.
