Also interested in the link

Further, @Apollo13 did you install yourself? Difficult?
Not at all. It was very easy and also comes with keys to lock in.

Weird they've gone MIA. I did email them directly as they were in touch daily as i was testing the crossbars.

I'm going to have to pull the trigger one something in the next 2-3 weeks for the winter ski season. I don't want the OEM but it would appear that's the only option we will have. Come on Yakima or Thule! Pump something out for the winter season!

Same boat. I've owned Yakima and Thule for a long time - neighbor has a 20-teens Tahoe w/ some silver, oval bars (mostly flat) with low profile towers that look awesome. Pretty sure it's these from Yakima:

I do not like the OEM rails at all, all black doesn't look good and they sit way too high. Not a fan. But, it appears they're the only game in town right now. Disappointing.

does anyone know how much height (e.g. inches) the OEM cross rails add?

I see OEM is listed with height of "6.12 inches" but I wonder if that is all above the top of the rails or if if the net height is actually slightly less than ~6 inches...

Anyone know? I would love to add these (or aftermarket, I'm open to that) without having to remove them to fit in my garage (~83").

For some reason it won't let me attach the link. I"m posting here.....so far I'm happy with it and personally i like the look with the larger base that connects to the roof vs the slimmer version on the OEM.
