Just wondering how strong the mounting points are. I noticed in the install video there is only a single bolt at each pillar?
Also what is the height and width of the crossbar?
We use one M10 stainless bolt on top of each mounting bracket, along with two factory M6 studs below for secure attachment. We’ve seen at least three cases where the factory M6 studs broke just from removing the original nuts on the two mounting points above the roof glass. While the M10 hardware we use is strong enough to handle the load, the factory M6 studs are not as durable and can fail under stress. So please remove the factory nuts slowly and avoid using power tools to prevent damage. This is one I saw that’s using a different brand’s crossbar
Our crossbar is 25mm (1 inch) tall and 80mm (3.15 inches) wide, which is a perfect fit for the Starlink Mini Roof Rack Mount.
Our crossbars using M10 nuts in the T-slot, allowing you to mount an awning with M10 bolts or use M10 eye nuts for ratchet tie-down straps. https://a.co/d/hKWlZio
You might see other crossbars with more T-slots, but many of them only support up to M8 bolts.
Hope this helps!
