Yakima Railgrab...tell me how easy/hard to remove

Got a new honda pilot, and need the rail grab system. Looks like they have changed the rail grabbers slightly. Anyone chime in on how easy or difficult it is to remove them once installed. I know the old version was time consuming to remove.

Perhaps not exactly what you were asking, but I just got a set of Yakima Whispbars (for factory rails), and they are very easy to install/take off. And they are super quiet.

the old railgrab towers and put them on a raised rail. Five minutes to install/de-install.

I have a set that's about 1 year old. They mount/dismount to the raised rail on my Highlander in no time. Love 'em.

They're easy to put on; just a matter of turning a certain piece to actuate the screw mechanism as they tighten.

I have a set to sell if you're interested.

Here's the link. classified thread
