How to Install a Thule Fit Kit 2142
- 1). Place the protective feet from the fit kit onto the bottom of the roof rack supports. Push the feet into place until they are fully seated and secure them to the bottom of the supports. Ensure the small alignment pin on the protective foot fits into the small hole on the bottom of the roof rack foot. Repeat for all four feet.
- 2). Place one of the roof bars of the Thule carrier onto the front of the vehicle's roof 12 inches back from the top edge of the windshield. Place the second bar 24 inches back from the first bar. Ensure the raised areas on the bottoms of the feet are resting in the grooves on the vehicle's roof.
- 3). Place one of the four roof rack brackets that came with the fit kit onto the outside edge of one of the roof rack supports. Ensure the mounting hole in the narrow end of the bracket aligns with the mounting hole in the top of the support, and that the lip in the bottom of the bracket is placed into the gap between the roof and top of the vehicle doors. Repeat for the three remaining brackets.
- 4). Secure one of the fit kit brackets to the roof rack support by inserting a retaining bolt into the mounting hole and tightening it with the tool that came with the roof rack. Repeat for the remaining three brackets.
