Question:
Hi, I have a 2005 Toyota Corolla S Model. I would like to purchase a roof rack. Will I have to drill holes to install? Which rack would be best for the car? Also, I dont believe this model has a hitch. What hitch would be recommended for this car? Thank you

For your 2005 Toyota Corolla S, the roof rack I recommend is the Inno Aero system which uses the following parts:
- 51" Aero Crossbars # INXB130-2
- Through Feet # INXS250
- Fit Kit # INK701
On to a trailer hitch! I recommend the Draw-Tite 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch # 24913 because it's easy to install (no drilling needed) and will have a 150 pound tongue weight capacity. Please note that it's a Class-I rated hitch and will work with Class-I rated accessories only. With that said, using any hitch accessories you must stay under the 150 pound maximum tongue weight.
I included a couple informative articles and a hitch installation video for you too. It certainly seems you are getting ready for some great adventures! If you plan on adding any bike carriers etc. let me know and I would be more than happy to provide some recommendations.
