The Yakima Q-Towers are designed to provide a sturdy, custom anchor for rooftop car rack systems with cross beams--on just about any vehicle. The "Q" in "Q-Towers" stands for quadruple movement--meaning that the Q-Tower moves in four different ways to provide a seamless fit to your vehicle and a perfect interaction with your attachment clips. The Q-Tower's movement derives from a ball-and-socket mechanism, which combines with the tower's solid, die-cast, one-piece body for a combination of stability and flexibility. The one-piece body is optimized for easier mounting with a side-wedge tightening system. Please note that the Q-Towers do not come with the attachment clips. Vehicle-specific Yakima Q-Clips are recommended for a custom fit on your door frame, but are sold separately. Cross bars are also required to complete the system and are also sold separately. The Q-Towers come in a pack of four and carry a limited lifetime warranty from Yakima.
The Q-Towers feature die-cast interiors for solid, sturdy anchoring. |

Yakima Q Towers (Set of 4) Reviews
bike roof : Yakima Q Towers (Set of 4) Reviews
10 of 10 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This Yakima roof rack system works great and I highly recommend it. I bought one for my Mazda 3 and have use it, along with a Yakima roof rack for 2 cross country ski trips (I live a Florida, skiing is far away). The rack hasn't shifted an inch and was relatively easy to install. Yakima has a product guide on their site to make sure you order the right pieces for your model car. 17 of 20 people found the following review helpful I owned a set of SST towers back in the mid-90s. The tensioning screw was pinned to the back of an all-metal lock body, and the lock engages the metal clip and also locks the tensioning lever. While the new Q Tower design allows greater adaptability to different roof lines and ease of attachment/removal without having to readjust the tension, once the plastic cover is compromised, say goodbye to your rack and everything on...

When I do, hopefully I will be able to do something to cover the sharp edges. It's not a single spot on the clip, because several times I got these sets of parallel scratches almost like you'd picture from cat's claws (and in this case, that would be a very big cat!).Also the Yakima Q-towers have these clear gel-like pads that protect the roof of the car, and unfortunately at least one always seems to want to come loose and fall off when I have the rack stored in my garage or when I'm lifting it into place. I never had this problem with the black pads on my old Thule towers which were firmly and permanently attached to the feet. The Yakima clips specific to my car: There is thick adhesive black "tape" which you put over the feet of the clips. This is already coming off the clips only a few months... Read more |
