It's very easy to install/remove. Took me about 10 minutes to install mine. Would take about 10 minutes to pull it off. The tabs slid right off for me - no problem. Threaded mounts for the rack are under the tabs.
You may be able to carry more weight on the yakima system if that's important to you.

Does anyone know which clips (I believe they are called "mightymounts") are used with the factory rack to attach accessories like the ski attachments? I already own Yakima ski attachments and may want to use them with the factory racks.

The net looks useless to me and the cargo tray is pretty flimsy but it serves it's purpose in keeping the interior in better shape. You could of course just flip the spare tire lid section to protect the carpeted side but I don't think it will catch spills like the cargo tray.

Anybody installed the windscreen?

I was going to order a set of Winter mats online and noticed there is a windscreen/bug deflector avaible. Just curious if anyone has seen one installed and how it looks. It's probably minimal in terms of actual function. Since I purchsed my vehicle almost a month ago, I have only spotted on CX7. I kind of like having a vehicle that isn't very common. Of course that may not hold true forever.

Yes, I had the wind deflector installed in November over the moonroof. However, seeing as it's now winter, I haven't used the moonroof yet, so I can't tell if it makes any difference or not. As far as how it looks, it's not too high and it's fairly sleek, so I think it looks pretty good. I've had my CX-7 since August and have seen only 2 in my area (NY/CT). I guess they are just not selling around here, but on the other hand, it's great being the only one on the road!

I'm reffering to a deflector that mounts on the edge of the hood. I probably should have just called it a "bug deflector"

I have seen three roughly in that area. All 3 in Hoboken, NJ in the past week.

Just returned from New Zealand after 3 months where I saw three CX-7's. They just began to import them there.
Here in upstate NY, I saw my first CX-7 on the road in Catskill, NY.today. We have owned ours since Aug. 30, but having been "out of town", we haven't had much chance to drive around looking.
