I've got the Saab racks (they're really just a pair of lateral bars) on my 9-5 Aero sedan. They don't bolt, but rather fit into the factory-installed holes that sit just under the rubber door gasket material - you just gently pull back the rubber and seat the bar "feet" into the holes on each side of the car (large pins fit into the holes), then tighten. Nothing could be simpler. Extremely solid and secure, and nothing to adjust, once installed.
Using these Saab racks, you can attach almost anything Thule makes in the way of accessory fittings BUT, obviously, you cannot change the SPACING between the front and the rear bars. Not a problem, really.
