Jeff: Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a look at this 44 inch long air screen XT for the Thule crossbars. Now, this is a nice aerodynamic fairing that'll deflect the air up over your roof rack to dramatically reduce any wind noise and drag. That'll even help reduce fuel consumption. The fairing itself installs on the crossbar at the front of your vehicle.
And it's a very easy installation with these included ratchet straps. You just push in and put your ratchet strap through there, and then just pull it tight around the bar. There's no tools required, and what's nice is they go around the bar and it allows you to access your crossbar's t-track still. On the very bottom of the fairing, you can see right up front here. These are padded rubber bumpers that'll protect your roof from any scratches and abrasions.
And this whole unit is a nylon and polycarbonate construction. It's very strong and durable.This part is made in the USA. Now the application for this, this will fit the Thule wing bar Evo, the wing bar edge, the AeroBlade, the AeroBlade edge and the square bar Evo crossbars. Weight On this fairing is only about 2.3 pounds. And just to give you some measurements.
The overall length from the widest point from this end to this end is going to be right at 44 inches long. The height, I'm going to give you a couple of measurements. The very middle portion is going to be about 4 1/4 inches. As you go out towards the edge, it goes up to about 4 1/2 inches. And on the very end here is probably your widest point, is right at about 5 1/2 inches tall.
But that should do it for the review on this 44 inch long air screen XT for the Thule crossbars.

Universal fairing deflects wind over your roof rack to drastically reduce noise and drag. Easy, tool-free installation on your front crossbar. Around-the-bar clamps won't interfere with T-track access.Looks awesome and totally eliminated the sound caused by my Thule square bars
It looks all right, thought it would be further forward. But my roof rack doesn't slide further forward than it is now. All of the parts were there and it assembled great. Overall mildly satisfied haven't driven with it yet.
Great product. Does what it's supposed to, the wind noise is significantly decreased and it looks great!
Awesome! Comes off and on easily and I e ran this thing through the car wash like 30 times this past year with no issues. 10/10
Also e trailer ships everything at lightspeed. 11/10
The Thule Airscreen arrived a day earlier than I anticipated, which was awesome. Very smooth process. Installation was a snap (I recommend doing the first half inside on the kitchen counter or table, then moving to the garage/outdoors for the actual attachment to the vehicle). No tools are required, which made it easy. It looks great on the car -- and I opted for the "long" size (44") which I think looks better for our 2020 VW Golf than the smaller versions.
The instructions were half missing and dimensionally does not make the same footprint as the previous generation (this one rests on top of the sunroof that LUCKILY, I don't use) whereas the the previous one easily reached forward far enough to clear it. etrailer does not have a look-up feature for sizing for this product (at least not for a MB ML350 SUV). 4 Stars is actually generous.
Very pleased with the way the Thule XT airscreen looks on my roof bars. Well made and easy to install.
I used this on my 3500 Chevy van. It has cut down on the noise and I’m very pleased.
Well made. Very easy to assemble.
Used on our GM rack on a Chevy Sonic Hatchback. I'd say the noise was a 6 pre air screen and it cuts it down to a 2. Very easy and simple to install
Very good quality.
received the item very quickly and at a great price.
Great Seller and Comunication. Fast sh ipper
