Bike Rack/Kayak Rack for the tc?
Was just thinking about this last night.
If and whever I do decide to get a tc, is there a bike rack out yet for the tc? A roof mounted to be more specific? Or can one go on the roof, b/c of the sun roof(s)?
Thanks.
-wanna be tc owner!

My first mod was a 1 1/4 receiver rack (installed today) and a low profile Hollywood Pro Rider bike rack cut down to one tray. I had a roof rack on my previous ride ( a very similar body style Saab 900) but it would be criminal to cover up the glass roof of a tC. Also much lower scratch potential with the receiver rack, and It comes off easier than a full roof rack mess on days I'm not planning to bike. Also better mileage than a roof rack since its in the car's draft, not above it making wind noise.
I had to get a custom install from some rednecks since no one has stock hitches to fit a tC yet. ($279 and they drove my car around a few miles) As for the kayak, maybe get a little one and put it inside? J/k

Reply appreciated......got any pics? or would you mind taking any? The kayak was a shot in the dark , but I was just feeling out who has done what. The bike rack would be first.
if you you want you can shoot them over to

Its night time so the only lighting is from my 420EX speedlight. Just the hitch installed.

The rack is at work, but as seen here: http://www.hollywoodracks.com/2&3.htm#prorider2
Another that would look good is the Uhaul. http://www.bikemania.biz/photos/CSGHitchRack-2.jpg
It does not come out as far as the body panels, and its black/barely visible when not being nuked by a flash. The whole mess adds about 12-18 lbs to the car, and bolts to the bottom of the spare tire well. Sorry not getting into the gravel for more pics of that.
