Roof rack on eBay - Toyota Yaris Forums

Shawn D · 07-29-2011, 03:01 AM

Hey guys i'm not sure if this is the right section or not but I was wondering if you guys thought this rack would fit a 3 door Hatch. It looks like it would if I just used the one door and made it a short rack (Like you have to on the hatch anyway)

Let me know what you guys think before I buy it I'm just looking for something on the cheap to hold my snowboard this season as well as a basket.

I wouldn't trust a brandless roof rack for your Yaris. Looks pretty ghetto, too.

Sedan roof racks don't fit the hatch. U need the right parts to attach it to the car. As far as everything u can use.

We purchased a similar rack for my sister's Corolla to be used once or twice when she moved. The clips were terrible, and it needed to be attached inside the car, which also caused leaks when it rained. It's great for a 1-time use, but not to leave on the car.

Any tips on trying to find a used yamkima or thule? They seem to go pretty high on eBay. Whichever brand I get I am looking for it to be as close to the roof as possible.

Check on here. I've seen a few people sell there full set for 250 shipped or so.

I'll have to keep an eye out then. I want to get one for the utility of it as well as leaving it on there to help cover up my hail damage until I can afford to get it in the body shop. But i'd really like to have it for my snowboard and next season my kayak.

Anyway. I'll keep an eye out here I suppose
