The Prinsu cross bars have a bigger slot on the ends which I deemed unnecessary. I thought they might even limit my ability to attach things near the ends of the bars. look into Sherpa before you buy. their build quality, customer service, strength, and most off all, their sealing system is superior to Prinsu. No silicone is used so no need to wait for silicone to set and no worry of water intrusion.

I don't like those large parts of the Prinsu's cross bars either, and it is too late since I have had it for about a year.
If Sherpa is similar to Prisnu, you have screws that pass through the side rails for the cross bars to attach to. These screw heads is what I was talking about. I don't know how the Roam awning attaches to the rack. If there are brackets that come with Roam then there should be no problems.
Do you like your Roam awning? Is the 6.5' the right length for the T4?
