huylanalexus Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hi all- I want to remove the cross bars but I’ve afraid the two side rails would not strong enough to stand alone. It seems the rail look so weak to me. Do you think the removal will help reduce the wind noise? Thanks everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetman Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hi all-I want to remove the cross bars but I’ve afraid the two side rails would not strong enough to stand alone. It seems the rail look so weak to me. Do you think the removal will help reduce the wind noise? Thanks everyone. I took the cross bars off two years ago and never had a problem. Never had a need to use the roof rack either - if it was optional I never would have gotten it. As for wind noise, I think removing the rails may have helped reduce wind noise ever so slightly, but don't expect a drastic reduction. The RX is a pretty quiet car anyways, despite the wind noise. I think you tend to notice the wind noise more since every other outside sound is so muted while in the cabin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
