I just picked up our JX last night and had ordered the vehicle with roof rails. What a disappointment! I am very mad at myself for doing so sight unseen.
They are not functional unless you buy the associated cross bars as there is no way to secure anything to them. They have no open space along the base to even put a rope through.
They are plastic and have removable covers to mount the crossbars when purchased; even then, the cross bars are single position and do not adjust front to back.
So I basically bought a $370 plastic trim piece for the roof. My salesman did offer to sell me the $290 crossbars at invoice when they are available once he saw how pissed I was.
