Ski Rack

[neerajkalra73]

Does anyone have a Lexus ski rack installed on their RX?

If yes, Does it hold well on the roof? Does it rattle or wobble?

Does it effect the gas milage? What are your suggestions on Lexus ski rack vs Yakima or Thule?

Thanks,

Here is a different idea. Both Yakima and Thule have ski racks that fit on hitch mounted bike carriers. You can see them on the REI website: http://www.rei.com/category/4500281

Maybe I'm overly sensitive to noise but I've always hated the wind roar from roof ski racks.

Thanks! I just bought a Lexus ski rack from craigslist. Unfortunately its missing a bolt (cylindrical shape). I contacted the vancouver dealer and he cant sell me one bolt but sells the whole pack of 4 nuts and bolts for $60. Thats insane!

Can someone please help or suggest something. I am not sure if I can find a cylindrical bolt that will fit this ski rack, anywhere else.

Thanks

Try buying the stuff at a Toyota dealer. It's all the same and without the rediculous customer raping markup. FYI - never buy nearly perfect stuff from craigslist without investigating the cost of making "perfect."
