Default Thule - Yakima roof bars

I am looking at either Thule 7602B or maybe Yakima S7 bars for my 2015, does anyone have information on these, using these bars on yours?
If so, what is the space between the open sunroof and the bottom of the bar?
My Yakima sky box has a 1" plastic clamping mechanism that needs to clear. 1 1/4 would be the least I could go.

Read the 4th paragraph in this post.

I'll bet that the clamps on the Yakima box are pretty much like the clamps on my Yakima basket.

PS - The Thule cross bars stay on 24/7/365, and are totally quiet at all speeds.

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed to see!
I was wanting the Yakima Whispbar originally becaue my box is Yakima, but trying to get black, in the U.S. for some reason is like trying to pull teeth from a bull.
Thule was my 2nd, maybe now my first, as I do like the looks of them.
