How to install cross bars on a bare roof of Toyota RAV4.5 LE

How to install cross bars on a bare roof of Toyota RAV4 LE 2022 without sidebars. It is supposed to work on RAV4 2023, RAV4 2021, RAV4 2020 and RAV4 2019. I used OEM cross bars made for RAV4 LE.
I was assured by the dealership's manager that as long as I don't damage the paint or some electrical component, I'm not supposed to have problems with the warranty. Be careful with the side airbags.

Thanks for the video. I want an LE but they don't come with a rail. Your video will allow me to adapt an LE for a cross bar without a rail. Makes me happy!😀

Wish you could have shown a picture of the entire car with roof rack?

So you only use 1 screw for each side? Does it hold? How was it now? I have same situation as yours. I don't like those clamp on crossbars.

Have you had any leaks?

🤦‍♂️ please replace the toilet bolts... head always come off from them, and they rusty really easy ....

Those are not the old steel bolts for holding the tank. Those are brass alloy. No corrosion.
