How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Yakima CoreBar with BaseLine towers on our 2022 Kia Sorento. Adding a roof rack system to your Kia Sorento is a great way to take advantage of space that's generally unused to increase your cargo capacity. So it allows you to add things like cargo baskets, rooftop bike carriers, or even kayak carriers. This helps out, 'cause you know this guy doesn't have the most space, especially if you go have the third row option, where you have full passengers, it's gonna allow you to get things moving for you. Let's take a look at our crossbar setup a little bit closer. So we're gonna start with the CoreBar that's 50 inches long, is two and three quarter inches wide, and one inch tall.

The design of it is similar to a airplane wing, and that is designed to cut through the wind a lot better and reduce wind noise, and it is mounted to our BaseLine towers using the CoreBar adapter. Your overall height that you're adding to the top of your vehicle, you're right at four and a half inches. So that's gonna work well for any of your rooftop baskets or rooftop boxes that clamp around bars. It should work with most accessories. Going to the front here, you can see there is a space for a lock core, and you can use the Yakima same key system.

So if you have other Yakima things like a bike rack, or, again, a cargo box, you can have them all keyed alike using the same keyed lock core. And then you have the fit kit base that's going to fit right into your gutter. These are custom fit, and you have two different numbers, and you're gonna wanna make sure you make note for the front and rear for the fit kits, but they go on in a very similar manner, and it's just rubber that's gonna help protect your finish. And even the clamp, the clip that goes into your door jamb is rubberized on the inside to protect your finish. Installation for the CoreBar and BaseLine towers is pretty easy to catch on.

If you do have questions with it, you can check out this video here, and I'll walk you through the steps of your install. It's just a lot of small steps, and it may require some backtracking, but I'll get you there. Let's check it out. We're gonna start our installation with setting up our BaseLine towers for our CoreBar adapter and cradle. So we're gonna use our Yakima tool, and start by removing the cover.

Alright, and we're gonna remove the cover by squeezing on the sides, and open up the security access to reveal the bolt on the inside. And we're just gonna screw that loose. We're gonna use a flat head just to get on the side of it, just to kind of pop it right out of the cradle. And we're gonna switch it over for the CoreBar. And you wanna make sure you're keeping in mind of your orientation. You're gonna want it where your bigger part of the oval faces the front, so you're gonna slide that in, and then use that same bolt to just secure the adapter, but not go all the way in, 'cause if you go too far, this is what holds the bar in place. So you don't wanna, you know, go too far, so you can still slide it across. Now insert our base on the bottom of our BaseLine tower. It just aligns at the bottom, and you just click it into place. You wanna make sure that the cutout is facing outward, 'cause that is where your fit kit bracket is gonna slide, and go and fill into that space between the door jamb and the roof. So now let's get an idea o
