Use care not to cross-thread the screw in the insert. 6. Adjust the alignment of the crossbar on the roof rails, and if available, use a T30 torx® bit and torque wrench and tighten the T-30 torx® head screws to 30 to 35 lbf·in (3.4 to 4.0 N·m, 0.35 to 0.41 kgf·m) of torque (or tighten securely with the torx® wrench provided).
