Canoe and Base Rack for 2006 Honda Ridgeline

Customer Question:

Hi, I have a question about purchasing a roof rack. I'm currently buying a 2006 Honda Ridgeline, that has no roof racks at all.

I was thinking about having the factory roof racks installed but decided to look and see if there were any others that would be better for me. Looking at your website, the Yakima Gunwale Brackets W/Straps - YAK_8005007 seems like it would be a good fit for me.

I have a bare roof on the truck I'm looking at. My question is, to purchase this item, what else would I need to purchase, and how much would all of that be? Thank you for the info.

Racks for All Fit Recommendation:

Thule has a nice custom fit for your Ridgeline:

Thule Aero Foot Pack

Qty: x 1

Thule 58 inch Load Bars (1 Pair)

Qty: x 1

Thule Fit Kit 2163

Qty: x 1

Thule Fairing 873XT (X-Large)

Qty: x 1

Thule Lock Cylinders (4 Pack)

Qty: x 1




Thule Canoe Carrier

Qty: x 1



Please note that the fairing is optional but cuts down on wind noise, and locks are completely optional.

Note that all of the Thule products will work with this base rack system, you can shop for accessories from this starting point.
