forwarding to the list as I thought I hit reply-all but it seems I didn't.

If you are going to go with Thule kit you'll need to install a set of
fake gutters on the pop top for the feet to hold onto.
The feet you want are the 387, not the 300. They are the longer feet,
you need them to clear the pop top.
Yakima has a similar kit but I don't know the specifics.
Check craigslist/eBay! You can get the whole thing for around $140 (top
end).
72" bars are the way to go but they are hard to find. I think 48" is the
bare minimum but I can double check if you need.

Cheers,
Harry
