PA H-Rail kits for older PA's

Does anyone know when or if a kit to retro fit the older PA's with the new H-rail bars will come out? I am very interested in these to go on a 2014 model. I love them on the 17T but thats a different story.

Thanks.

Any updates on the availability of the H-Rail retro kits?

Saw a You Tube video on installing the H Rail kits on the older PA's so they must be close.

I saw Shane's video on the H-Rail Conversion kit; have they assigned a part number yet?

Any idea if they are going to release a kit for the 2012 and earlier PA's. I could probably make this one work, but there is a lot of pieces that I wouldn't use.

Just picked up the H-Rail conversion kit for my 2013 PA 12 but I cant locate that video showing the install. Any ideas?

Thanks

Not yet completed.

Guess the original was pulled down? Any time frame?

Thanks Matt.

We made change, so they would be easier to install on a PA14. Now two separate kits. One for 12 and another for 14 because the PA 14 was going to require cutting the tubes shorter.

84625314 PA H-RAIL UPGRADE KIT PA14

That has required revising the video.

Matt,
Will there be a universal type kit available ? Something i could possibly extend the H- Rail on back along side of the tank well on my 14 ?
If so, i am also wondering if it would be possible to purchase the second from rear T type H-Rail mounts from the PA 17 and mount them where the rear mounts are on the 14 and run the H-Rail back from there ?
Thanks !

Read Yak9107 post. I would also like to extend the H rail on I'm 2015 PA-14 to the back of the kayak. Hope you guys will have a kit for that. Seems like the more H rail space the better when outfitting the Pro Angler with accessories.

No kit for that planned and no "universal kit". There are already to shorter kits/sections offered that could do this: 9" and 21".

a 9" kit? What did they make a 9" kit for ? Do you have a part number for the 21" and what is included in the kit ? Thanks...

never mind, i found it ! Looks like it comes with 2 end mounts though. I would want to extend from the existing mount. Will Hobie sell the T type mount that would make this possible ? Thanks !
