Hey there, I'm new here (first post!), but have dug through this thread. I'm trying to get the appropriate Inno rack kit with everything included to haul a 16' canoe with a 2015 Honda Fit, however getting some conflicting info from AutoAnything. Can anyone share a fresh new link for the rack kit I'll need?

Here's what the AutoAnything rep told me this morning:

[Adam M] The parts listed on Innos site are not available on our site yet. They are in our system but still on hold, it looks like there is an error with their data that we are trying to work before we launch them on the site.
[Adam M] Inno shows part XS200/XB100/XB93/K441 is the correct kit for your vehicle.
[Adam M] That part is on hold.
[Adam M] All we have on the site is part#
[Adam M] XS200/XB100/XB093/K358
[Adam M] Which is for the 2014 models.

So looks like no luck with AutoAnything. If anyone can point me in the right direction or send a fresh link, I will be eternally grateful!

Thanks for the tip, talked to them today and ordering through Ors! All said and done, $283.16 for standard rack and wind fairing, 3 day shipping, I'm pumped!

For those still looking, I highly recommend http://www.orsracksdirect.com. Just call them direct, your options are:

Inno Roof Rack Aero Model: Part Number XS200/XB100/XBO93/K441

Inno Base Model: Part #: IN-SU/IN-B127/K441

Oh final tip... THEY PRICE MATCH! So reference what you see on AutoAnything.com (or other site) and get a deal

Just got mine from ORS. Their site does need some work, but all you need to do is pick the rack system, 50" bars, and type in 2015 Honda Fit in the make/model section. No issues at all From ORS and Inno makes it very easy to install.

Thanks for the info. I just ordered from AutoAnything. I got the base square Inno racks with the windfaring for $225. They currently have the windfaring thrown in free plus 20% off orders over $99 (ends 7/26). ORS wouldn't match as it was too low.

yup, just un-torque all corners and lift right off. and for putting back on, without having to remeasure, just tape off the top edges of the feet where they sit in the roof channels.

If I ever need a rack, that's what I'll get.

Any worries about denting the roof? Looks like where the feet sit are on the stronger portion of the roof.
What is the max weight load you can put on those bars?

as long as all is installed / handled properly, i don't see denting being an issue. not 100% sure what the max weight load is off the top of my head, but should be listed on thule's site.

I think the weight limit is 100 or 110 lbs, but double check before loading it.

I use Thule square bar racks with Traverse feet. The fit kit is available separately if you have racks from another car with traverse feet or can pick up a used set.


A great accessory for securing boats and long loads: https://www.thule.com/en-us/ca/produ...p-530-_-530999
You can easily DIY something like it.

The old 503 load stops are essential for lumber runs: Thule 503 Square Bar Load Stops - Thule Rack Accessories
Again, DIY easily if you have the tools.

i've now been running 47" aeroblades for a bit. cleaner looking and much more quiet than the square bars.
