roof rack for bikes, etc.
 
does anyone know a specific brand or fit that works the best with a 2000 SL1?

i have been searching for a little while now...just scared to spend the money unless i know it is a good fit/stays put/good quality.

thanks in advance for any insight.

I have 2 sets of racks that I bought from a BIKE shop which are very cool and fit great,the company is SARIS and all parts are bought separately.I have the upright and fork mount,you can add host of different set ups for canoes,trunks,bikes,etc.

still searching.
man, saris is expensive!

anyone else have a list of specific parts by other companies, or a review on how well everything fits?

my girlfriend bought me a trunk mount rack for my birthday. it's okay.... i can't remember the name brand at the moment.

it is supposed to work with the bottom strap going under the bumper, but it won't work with an sl1..... i used it with the strap to the side of the latch. i can maybe take some pictures later.... hoping to take the bikes out for the weekend.

You just may find a few pictures by doing an internet search.
