Ours are installed outside the canvas.
Also, they are not mounted parallel, and that is on purpose because the penthouse top is not square either... ...or something like that. This means that to move the towers forward or back that the tower to bar connection needs to be loosen to allow travel.
This is our second vehicle with Yakima tracks, and the have worked wonderfully well.
The first set of tracks were installed by a chucklehead that said he was qualified and trained to install when he was not.
The tracks do not use your normal hardware, but rather a special rivet like fastener.
