Reviews and real pictures on the lockable cross-bars?

[goofysurfer]

I'm ordering the Cross Turismo with lockable cross-bars[1]. Can anyone give me a review on these? Also can someone post real-life pictures of them installed as well?

Thanks!

DON'T GET THE PORSCHE BARS!

At least that's my recommendation. The quality is garbage compared to other ones that Thule makes as OEM. Super flimsy parts and bad clip design on some (or all?) I'm trying to get my returned as they damaged my roof rails.

There is at least one other thread that covers this topic and has photos:

If you want it for a board carrier, then you might not want the lower profile Thule Wingbar type that will be low and will likely cause a board bag to contact the roof. (You will have to order them from outside the US.) The OEM design has almost too much height and looks a little weird. Wish there was an option available in between.
