Why thank you, Greenplastic, I forwarded the page to my dealer, haven't heard back yet but at least I know it exists somewhere!!!
As for liking the car, I LOVE IT, which kind of surprises me, having driven an 8V truck for years!

J.C. Whitney has two, one Alumium and one ABS Plastic. I believe both of them would require the drilling of pilot holes in the roof.

Thank you Jengrave. I just got a removable roof rack made by Highland. It works perfectly with my kayak and being removable means I don't have to put holes in my car or lose gas mileage. If anyone is interested it is the Highland Superfit costs about $30 thought it would be flimsy at that price but it is pleasantly solid (alum)made by Cequent - manufacturers of Draw-tite. Note to anyone buying one, insert the straps BEFORE putting the bars on the towers (instructions say otherwise) I threw away the J clips as of course there is no place for them and got a strap to go through the vehicle. Couldn't be happier.

Hi alphabrit,
 
With the strap goes under the roof, can the windows or door be closed tight? Are the bars parallel to the car or across the roof? how many bars? Can your kayak be secured safely by it? How many pounds is your kayak? I am looking to do the same.Thanks

Yes the doors close tight, it works very well, the bars (2) are across the roof as (not sidebars) and yes my kayak is very secure. I have a picture in my Carspace if you like to check it out. I am very pleased with how it works, have taken several trips with it.

Alphabrit,
 
What kind of strap did you get, and where did you get it? Thanks
