The sleek, low-profile tray reduces wind drag and road noise while also minimising interference with rear hatch operation on many vehicles.

The HighRoad features tool-free mounting hardware that fits most modern roof rack systems straight out of the box.
It can also be upgraded for T-slot roof bars using the optional Yakima SmarT-Slot Kit 1.
