Ok, I'm going to be helpful for once!!!!

Matt, is showing you 65" load bars. He earlier mentioned that they were "Gutter Racks" which seems correct. Gutter Racks fit in the rain gutter on the roof of a vehicle, hence the name "Gutter Racks". I believe there are 3 or 4 sizes of "Gutter Racks" that Thule makes. These appear to be model #300 Gutter Racks. Maybe it is stamped on the Gutter Rack somewhere.

Potential buyers: Go to the Thule site or any other rack site that has a Thule Fit guide. After you put your vehicle in there it will spit out the type of rack you will need. If it says you need a "Gutter Rack" with at least 65" length bars (you can always use longer bars), then you should check it out some more to be sure. If it doesn't say you need a "Gutter Rack" model number then it will not fit your vehicle, so you should go buy a new vehicle that the racks will fit.

Oh yeah...the saddles are universal to all thule bars, no matter the length....these are the older model ones also, which in my opinion are the better ones, they aren't able to slip off the bars like the newer ones did to me and some others I know of.
