The Baja is a 4-passenger vehicle. There is no middle rear seat belt (or seat).

I am currently transporting my mtn bikes w/ quick releases in my bed. However, my 'big hit' bike does not have quick release so I am ordering a hitch mount rack from Yakima.
 
I bought my 2005 Baja w/ 12,000 miles on it. I have ran Amsoil since that day. I believe syn is worth the price. I run 0W-30 for 17,500 miles. Also, have increased gas mileage. 28mpg is the best so far. FL to TN, 9 hrs w/ cruise most of the way.

Unless you are set on a Yakima rack you may want to check out bikenashbar.com or performance.com for other bike racks. I have a Nashbar rack that I picked up for about 1/2 what my nephew paid for his Thule.

Is anyone using the Subaru Baja Bike Carrier, Bed Mounted E3610LS400? It's listed as a genuine Subaru accessory. I can't figure out how it is mounted to the bed. Does it work well? Safe traveling long distances? Thanks for any help.

Mountainbaja,
 
It depends as to what year your baja is. I would suggest to go to http://techinfo.subaru.com/html/ixSearchFree.jsp?text_keyword=&keyword=&publicat- ion_type=12&free_pub=13 and download the proper installation guide to get an idea as to how to install it. My car came with the plates already mounted so I just had to buy the carrier. I have not had any problems, except I am afraid someone might just figure out how to unscrew it (lacks locks to prevent removal from the bed) and steal it.

I purchased the Ozzbros bed cover today and installed it tonight. I live in Kansas City area so was able to pick up from company. It installed easily, works beautifully, and I think it will easily outperform the vinyl covers. I read frm other owenrs that the OEM cover tears at the corner. The Ozzbros cover can store behind the front seat if necessary. If you buy one from Ozzbros please tell them I recommended it. I am sure they will do for you what they said they would for me...pay a bird dog fee. Kirtes C, Raymore, MO.

It's true the OEM covers do tear at the corners. My cover rip the first week I had it. Is it true that the Co. knows that it's a bad product and will take it back, as I have heard thru the grapvine?

Which bed cover use. by panhandleguy

Recently purchased a super 2005 sport with only 44K on it and love it. I'm hooked so now I'm trying to decide on which bed cover to go with either the OEM soft or the Ozzbros. Good comments on this forum, so I thought I would ask a couple of questions for those of you who have used these two products. If you have either of these on your Baja for a couple of years now, how do either of them hold up and would buy the same product again. Also, are either of these really water proof?

I purchased my 2006 Turbo Baja about 2+ months ago and need either a tool box (which does not seem to exist) or a bed cover. I've seen two types, the vinyl one that might rip and the Ozzbros which seems to just fit over the top like a tupperware lid. Stupid question: Does the bed extender get in the way of either type? How reliable is the Ozzbros if it just fits in place like their website seems to suggest?

There is one other option for a bed cover. Snutop (http://www.snugtop.com/model-availability/subaru.php) makes a hard top cover. I've had mine over a year and it works fine. Upside: lockable, great protection. Downside: has to be ordered/installed by a local rep, price.
