Hi,
I saw the previous thread regarding the fit kit:
http://www.landroverworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=22545&highlight=thule
In my case, the anchors seem to be to large. They are 1.31inches long, which is just slightly to big to fit into the rails (and yes, i am trying in the rail areas with the "gaps"). Has anyone experienced this issue? I am about to contact Thule.
Secondly, does anyone have experience with the aeroblades? They look fine and when they were on my previous rig, were fairly quite, but last October, nothing I cared about really fit well on them. The groove their new cargo box foot print was not wide enough to fit over the blade, so you had the box resting on the very small area on the sides, this just didn't seem that stable. For the ski racks, whether you bought an adapter for your old racks or a brand new one, the fit didn't look stock and quite out of place. It just doesn't seat well with the curvature of the blade.
Does anyone also notice these issues? Eventually, I am sure they will update their products to better fit the new blades, but its disappointing that they haven't done so already.
