The side rails can be fitted later by yourself or the dealer. They are easy to install.
The mount points can also be used for aftermarket.
Look at Thule and their rack picker tools for other guidance.
You get the part number thar corresponds with the part you are swapping out.
You can pull the trim panel off the driver side footwell to confirm the part number.
Try to match part number and model year.

As even this says it is no longer a thing to need to break an engine in.
The worst thing you can do is even load / cruise control on the level for the first miles. With the design of this engine it is not going to be pounded to 6k...
