Footnote1:  It's possible for buyers to customize & drill more 7/16" mounting holes in frame base if 28" on center doesn't work for your rack 

Footnote2: Fyi flex panels backing may not be white may be dark blue the supplier ships both. Both identical specs same power rating

Footnote3: For added security each kit comes standard with nylon lock wingnuts to secure the supplied mounts to buyer's roof rack, but buyers are responsible for enabling locking roof rack for your rack to avoid theft (buyers can also opt for added security simply wrap cable lock between your TSR™ kit and vehicle rack there's room underneath to do so if you choose)

Footnote4: manufacturers warranties where available apply to all kit equipment

Footnote5: All TSR™ kits still come standard with eight (8) 7/16" holes drilled for 3/8" mount bolts TSR™ kits are not designed to just be 'glued' to vehicle roofs with adhesive or sealant buyers are responsible for properly connecting all kits to vehicle roofs if don't choose to install to roof rack as recommended TSR™ can't be held liable
