    Comments about Thule Short Roofline Adapter:

    Because there is not a positive link between the adapter and the rack towers, the adapter can fall off the towers and scratch the car during installation. Once installed and all clamps appropriately tightened, the rack/adapter set-up is very strong and very stable. When removing the rack/adapter set-up from the car, the lack of a positive link between the adapter and rack towers again becomes a problem as the adapter can fall off the towers and scratch the car. Throw a towel on the roof to cushion the roof during installation and removal. For a small car with a short roofline, it is a practical solution to installing a strong, stable rack.
