Replying to: gurgs24 (Oct 11, 2005 9:13 am) Being that you have an SUV, I would go with a rear hitch mount system. The car is high enough, and then to have to throw your bike on top is a bit of a hassle. My friend does this with his Lexus SUV, and its a bit of a joke. Especially if you go riding with short people, you are the one who is always loading/unloading the bikes. Not to mention the stories I have heard about people forgetting about the bikes on top of the car and they "TRY" to go into a drivethrough or park in the garage. I would suggest going with a rear hatch rack that folds down to allow access to the tailgate. It truly is the most convenient. This is what I have had for my past two 4runners and it is great. In fact, I picked up a new rack this summer at Costco for $140 (it was a Softride rack that held 4 bikes and lowered effortlessly). I doubt they still have them since its a summer item, but I would look around. I chose a fold-down rack over the swing type. Also, my bike rack "arms" come off so its not sticking out when not in use. As a side note - I prefer the HOLLYWOOD racks over the Thule/Yakima bc their arms fold down when not in use. Hope this helps Brian |

Replying to: jcrunner (Sep 28, 2005 4:54 pm) I have a 2005 Limited with NAV but would love to upgrade the sysyem to play MP3's, local TV and DVD's. Where did you find this, and did you already have NAV installed on your car? And do the steering wheel controls still work? Seems like a decent upgrade. Thanks |

| I have a 04 sports edition and I'm installing a sirius starmate. Has anyone installed a satallite radio in the area below the air/heat controls. There area where the compartment opens. Any other suggestions. Also can I hook up the satallite radio directly to the stock stereo or do I have to have the 6 disc changer. | |
Has anyone purchased the OEM rubber floor mats? Also, and discounts out there other than dealer retail?
|
|
| Yes, I have purchased them. They are great. Ocassionally some dealers will have 20% off on them. So they end up a little less than $100. | |
|
Are the OEM rubber floor mats available in stone -- or are they black only. I have seen two different types of rubber OEM floor mats at two different dealerships. One said there was a 'new' and an 'old' style. One seems to have thicker, deeper channels for mud/slush (the black only ones). The ones available in stone are much thinnner and plastic-like. Don't seem worth the $99. THanks! |
