Kayak carrier for 2007 Tucson with factory crossbars

  1. I've been trying to find a kayak carrying kit for my new 2007 Tucson
    with factory crossbars.

    Yakima and Thule are not compatible with the new crossbars which are
    fairly wide and oval and have a slight downward arc. Thule said
    something must have changed with the 2007 because their equipment was
    compatible up until this year.

    I looked at a Bass Pro foam kit, but the foam cutouts were way too
    small for my bars.

    There is a Hyundai kayak carrier, but if you look at the picture of
    the crossbars in the ad, they're very small. I don't know if it's
    actually compatible with the 2007 Tucson.

    Has anyone found and used a kayak solution for a 2007 Tucson with
    factory crossbars?

    If the foam blocks have holes too small a bandsaw and/or sander will
    reconfigure. If you are willing to live with foam blocks on the bars
    look for somebody that can sell you a chunk of minicell foam and cut
    out your own.
