Yakima Q Clips - 1 Pair

Get your right size for your car and it will do the job. Never had a single problem with my roof rack. Don't skimp and buy some old ones or ones that aren't designed for your car. It could be bad news

I just posted a review and had the wrong number - Q124 works for both front and back of the Prius, not the 5's as suggested by Yakima. I think the original specifications for the Prius were the 124's and somewhere along the way they changed it to the Q5, which didn't seem to quite fit. In any case the clips work!

Using Q106 clips on my '00 Maxima. Fit just fine, though concerned about possible door seal compression/tearing over time. Believe these are the best solution on the market, just aren't perfect. Happy to have them though, they do the job quite well.

Worked like a charm - so far no problems. Had some initial trouble figuring out how the heck these things were going to secure the rack to the roof of my vehicle as they didn't seem to grab on as I would expect. Turns out they make the rack "clamp" on to the roof sort of like a vise. Some better instructions explaining this would have helped. Only thing I don't agree with is the price. Way too expensive for 2 small pieces of metal in my opinion, plus you need 2 pair!

The ordering process was very easy and straight forward. I ordered thru Amazon, compared prices, and found backcountry.com to be the lowest for the Yakima items that I was looking for. No taxes and free shipping!!! The items came in approximately one week and were packaged securely. Instructions were simple! I have had the rack for about a month and love it. No more worries about my bike if I drop by the store and go in....I'm thinking about purchasing the faring since I hear a little road noise as I increase speed. It's worse when the moon roof is open. Anyway, I am very pleased with the purchase and Backcounty.

I got these along with the rest of the gear BC recommended with my car and everything works great. Decent price, durable and looks great.

I have an 05 legacy gt and for those that have the subie with the no frame above the window might wonder how the q clips grab onto the car. Usually the clips hold on to the metal of the actual frame of the car. I was a little skeptical about how these grab onto the plastic ledge just above the window. I can now say after a season of use that these things won't damage the plastic and can hold quite a bit of force from the rack. P.S. you don't need to grip stickers it comes with if you have my setup

Yakima racks are great except for their cost, especially for the little items like the Q-clips. $30 for two small pieces of metal. From what I can tell the only difference in the various clip model numbers is the location of the identical holes. With the amount of adjustment available in the towers themselves I think that a person could make up for the location of the hole with the tower adjustment and not have to buy new clips when moving a rack from one car to another.

I called Yakima directly before I bought these clips. The people that answer questions at Yakima don't even seem to understand there own products! I was told by a Yakima rep this would work with 1a rain gutter towers. They do not work with the rain gutter clips. However backcountry was awsome!! They let me return the items with out any problems at all!

So far, the Yakima system I put together from 3 different suppliers has worked just fine. I bought most components from this site as was pleased with the price. The system is fairly easy to setup and feels sturdy enough to not worry about putting my new Cannondale on. I certainly would purchase this whole setup again.

The description of my vehicle for selection of the Q-clips was not applicable.

It was impossible to define which Q-clip was relevant, without help.

The instructions could have been clearer, by adding a perspective view of the Q-clip installed.

My only frustration with these clips, was that (unlike 90% of Saturn parts), replacing my car with one 8 years newer, required changing the Q clips at all!

In all seriousness, the changeover between clips (and installation of stretch kit), went smoothly and flawlessly. The rule of thumb is that installing a rack takes up to two hours... and major changes take about that long as well. Having a 'buddy' to check measurements helps, but otherwise, work in daylight, check your measurements twice, and get out on the road... The 1,080 mile trip to Black Rock City, gave the new rack a solid "test drive", and left little doubt as to the quality of the rack... and the installation.

Great service, the Q clips were cheap, and they work great.

Worked great. Took about 10 minutes to install.

The Q-Clips are good...forgetting your bike is up there is not so good!

The service that I received was great and the people seemed to know what was going on.

These look rugged and sturdy. I hope they don't scratch my doors over time.

I've got a stack of car racks in the shed and then bought a yakima for an old Mercedes I owned, hated to buy another rack so looked for replacement clips to go on my Volvo. They work great. Took five minutes to switch them over. Cheers, Ship

These clips work great. Very pleased with your website and speedy delivery.
