Sadly my versa was totaled a few months ago and I replaced it with something different. I have a Yakima roof rack, 58" cross bars, q towers and qclips, and fairing, that has never had anything on top of it, but was put on the car for transit from Florida to Mississippi, then taken off and stored inside. My new car has a factory roof rack, so I'm looking to sell the rack. It's already set up for a Versa hatchback but is the same rack a versa sedan uses. If you go to the Yakima website, the complete rack retails for $295, I'm looking to sell it for $250 obo, and we'll talk about shipping. If you're seriously interested, let me know and I'll send you contact information.

Quick question can you put bicycles on top of those or are they mainly used for kayaks and stuff? If they hold bicycles I would be very interested, btw im located in austin, texas if you want to calculate a shipping cost.

You'd have to get the bicycle attachment separately, they run anywhere from $80 to $200 depending on what you want. This is the basic rack, the uprights custom fitted to the versa, crossbars, and fairing to help with wind resistance on the front. Check out Yakima's website and you can see the different attachments you can get. Just for reference, I got the rack for Christmas, drove 600 miles with it on the car but with nothing on the rack, then took it off and stored it, so it's brand new and in perfect condition.

A. Does it work with the sun/moonroof?

B. Are you anywhere close to Interstate 10? We will be passing through to the Florida panhandle at the end of May and we could probably put it directly on the car and save you shipping.

I called Yakima and the rack will work with a sunroof. If you have a wind deflector, it may be affected, but I can measure the approximate height of the rack so you can figure out if you have enough clearance or not. Getting to I-10 is no problem, I'm in the middle of nowhere MS right now, but go to Pensacola on weekends a lot so I drive I-10 more then I would like to. Any questions, contact me at [email protected]

I'm looking for something to tote my skis on in the winter. I would buy the ski attachment, but I need the rest,which I think is what you are selling. Do you have pics? You can email me at [email protected] if you do. I am very interested. I live in WV, so shipping would be needed.

Thanks,Vikky
