Yakima Landing Pad Base for Yakima Control Towers (11) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The product works okay, and in theory, it is easy to install.However, you need to look at the instructions and parts carefully.There's a chart for vehicles that tells you which screw to use.They package the screws in a way that looks like there are two types, but actually, there are four.I installed one side fine.It then took me 30 minutes to figure out I had the wrong screw on the other side.Silly me, I guess, but I couldn't figure out why one side fit and the other didn't.Thought maybe I got the wrong landing pads.If you have the right parts, its a quick install.

Yakima Bow/Stern Tie Down Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased these tie-down straps with a full rack and canoe kit. The tiedows were very pricey, but they claimed they cam with a protective tube over the ropes to prevent paint scratches.

Let me save you some trouble- Don't bother with these. Get some normal tie-down straps or even some good rope, and wrap them in a towel or cloth. The plastic rope covers scratched the paint on my car very badly, and didn't really offer any other benefit.

The one good feature about these straps is the ratcheting system- When you pull the rope tighter, a ratchet locks it into place until the ratchet lever is pulled. This isn't to say it replaces a good cargo strap, since the rope does tend to come loose, but with some good knot tying, you can get it pretty solid.

Overall, the product quality is as expected, but in the end it was a waste.

I rate things as follows:
1 star - Far below expectations / Completely unsatisfactory
2 star - Below expectations / Unsatisfactory
3 star - Met expectations / Satisfactory
4 star - Exceeded expectations / Very satisfactory
5 star - Far exceeded expectations / Beyond satisfactory

Yakima Roof Rack Fairing (38-Inches) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Okay, this "fairing" looks cool on top of my Toyota Tacoma and it hides the roof rack.However, it does very little to cut down on wind noise.I was really surprised at how much noise it still allows.Instead of thumping the roof, the wind now whooshes loudly.If you don't have the music on, it takes some getting used to.Without the ski rack on top, it is easily stolen by unscrewing the bolts (although I don't know who would steal a 38" X 3.5" piece of plastic).It's amazing what we buy to make things look "cool".Thule also makes nice looking `fairings'.
