I have Thule roof racks. I love the look of that yakima wind deflecter kind of thing against the front roof rack. Anyone know where I can get one

I get my roof stuff at www.sportsrack.com

I've got the Yakima loadwarrior and removed the windjammer thingy. It bounced around a lot and made a bunch of noise.
 






Could I buy it from you? is there a way to make it fit my racks, or does it attach a special way.
 






Should fit. You might want to check two things. First, compare the sizes of the yakima and the thule. Make sure its not too big or too small. Then check the diameter of the round tubing used on each of the two racks. It attaches via two clamps that go over the round tubing.
 






I have square tubing. Hmm.
 






Hi boats,
Sportsrack.com has the Thule and their own brand of fairings. They're a great company to buy from and I think they have an online sale right now.
One warning: the instructions say that the fairing must be mounted CLOSE to the windshield. I still haven't put mine in because my rack mounts to the factory rails which are about 3 feet back.

thanks for the info man, i figured out that mine are mounted to the factory rack to, so i cant use it up front. too bad.
 






I still need one of those windjammer sort of things.
