Default Pic of a 5th gen with a roof rack?

Im looking at getting a roof rack for my car. Anyone have any pics of a 5th gen with a roof rack on it? Id like a pick with just the roof rack and with something in the roof rack like a bike or whatever. Thanx

LOL seeing a low *** car with a load twice its height would be hillarious. @ the RR, ive never heard of one but try going to a honda dealer and ask for a rr for a crv and chop it off and mount. Be the first one

I've seen it, but not mine and don't have a picture. There is someone who makes one that will fit. It did'nt look horrible, but it did'nt stick up as high as most do either.

Damn, $400 for one of those. I guess I'm lucky I don't really need one

yeah if you fold down the rear seats, you can fit 2 snowboards or sets of skis pretty easily. I just bring a towel to dry them off with at the end of the day. better than $400. guess it would not work with a sub system in the trunk tho.

yeah but he asked about a 5th, and i know they will fit, I've done it quite a few times. So did my friend until he sold the fif for an S2k... no chance in that.

I fit 3 in my 4th gen when I had it.. bindings had to come off and it was a tight fit, boards diagonal through the hole in the back seat.. but we got 3 people and 3 boards in there

That's even better, if a little tedious. In the fif, only 2 people can fit, since the whole seat goes down. But you could probably fit like 6 boards in there.
