Why We Like The Edge FixPoint
We've got the powerful SUV, the Thule WingBar Edge bars, and the cabin by the resort rented for the weekend. All we need now to get our gear out the door is the Edge FixPoint feet to securely mount the bars and get to our destination.

Perfectly fine
East to install-no wind noise that I can hear-feels as strong as original equipment

Worked as designed
Other than the directions being like IKEA directions and sometimes interesting to try and figure out, it was a fairly straightforward install process. Unlike others we don’t have any whistling or other loud noises coming from the bars, and we can still use our moon roof. We installed on a 2014 Toyota Highlander. We also purchased the Motion XXL box, from a local retailer and everything worked fine. I would have given 4.5 if I could, the instructions should be better for a 5 star rating

Nice rack, some thoughts
I have a BMW 535d and the rack is great, does exactly what it’s designed to. For my opinion there are two things that could be worked on. The wind fairing needs more support so that when running through a car wash, it doesn’t rip off or get messed with. If you don’t have a fabrication background, I imagine a fox would be out of the realm of possibilities, but I’m working to swap out the brackets to hold it stiffer than what comes stock. The second thing is the rails attach really far out from the mounting points and look a tad awkward. If they were sleeker or more streamlined, I’d be super happy but they’re kinda clunky and big.

Whistles
Not sure which piece is whistling, the Fixpoint or the Wingbar, but something whistles at almost any speed below 50. At 50, the whistling either stops, or wind noise drowns it out. Very disappointing.

Great product - no wind noise!
I’ve had Thule racks on 2 other vehicles and decided to go OEM on my SQ7. Bad idea…couldn’t take the wind noise so I bought the Thule FixPoint Edge and no noise at all! Love them…

2020 Highlander Roof Racks
Waited two years for these roof racks. Perfect fit, the silver racks look great on the white Highlander. With engineering and design this good, I can forgive the wait.

Thule
Still dealing with a persistent loud annoying whistling sound coming from my new Thule roof rack system that Thule claimed to have resolved for me.

Missing part
I would give this 5 stars except my order was missing the keys to lock the rack. Otherwise, it wasn’t too bad to install. Looks great on the car and feels sturdy

Solid Thule quality but...
Solid Thule quality but I was hoping for a lower profile option that incorporates the wingbar edge T track with the split rubber strip. These sit an inch or two higher than my aeroblade bars which means I wouldn't be able to pull in the garage with my Alpine Vector roof box installed. So I returned these and kept my aeroblade bars.
