Assisted Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2019 Mazda 6 with Yakima Naked Roof
Question:
Will the ShowDown work with Yakima Corebars? Corebars are being installed on my new 2019 Mazda 6 next week so I want to order the ShowDown or Hullavator now so I can go kayaking next weekend. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
While the Yakima ShowDown part # Y04081 can be installed on Yakima corebars it can't be installed on roof racks that attach to door jambs using clamps like the Yakima rack you are installing on your 2019 Mazda 6 # Y00421, # Y28TR, # Y06130, and # Y06132 so your best option then is the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 you also mentioned.
This is an assisted kayak carrier that does fit the Corebars and can be used on roof racks like what you have as well.
