I am looking for a roof rack for my Civic 92 HB I found a site witch shows the racks for the civic 92 the site is http://www.yakima.com but the racks are pretty expensive the site the kind of roofrack I would like is like would be something like this or similar http://gull.us/auto/rack/



I would like the rack to support cargo boxes I've seen some hatches with either bike rack or just regular rack like the above and with cargo boxes on top. Here is a picture of what a cargo box looks like



I look in ebay I found these kind of similar roofracks http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...=true I like those Vacurak but would they hold a cargo box?

Don't cheap out on a roof rack. The wrong kind will have it rusting out or flying off on the freeway.

Get the Yakima rack, they're ******* ****.

Anyone else.......Do u think I could maybe find a used one?

Winlight

when you drive down the freeway and you see people with racks,you will notice that 95% of them are Yakima.there is a good reson for that.

Thule racks don't hold a candle to Yakima racks.

i sell both types at the bike shop i work at and by far the yak ones are the best. also there a pretty nice company with coustomer serivce. yakkkk ftw

actually the yakima's arent that great either. if you have ever owned one you will notice if you make the lock too tight the key cylinder inside the pulldown lever breaks off either during locking or after locking over hard bumps. so you have to get it snug but not too snug.

yakima will give you a replacement, but these plastic thingys are way too thin. i had to replave two covers. as soon as i got the 2nd one i sold the rack.

also you will notice considerable wind drag even with that shield thingy.

yakima service was great, but who has time to wait weeks for the cover???

good luck

i've had a yakima for about 3 months now and havent had any problems at all...but i only use it to carry around my bmx bike using the copperhead attachment

I have the Thule one for my 95 Hatch to carry snowboards and skis, thing was expensive but it's solid! Sure beats stuff equipment into my car. They also make other carriers that fit on my rack, I only bought the snowsports one though. I can take pics if you want.

Flicks like you actually wanna see videos instead of pics of the rack in action? Haha, I suppose I could take a video (no audio, my camera is old school) of me putting my snowboard in the rack or something? I dunno is that what you mean?
