Question:
I have a 2008 Mazda 3 4-door sedan. I have no pre-existing visible mounting points so I was wondering if the Yakima A1 Raingutter mount system would work with my car? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Since your 2008 Mazda 3 sedan does not have the fixed mounting point on the roof you will need to use a different style of roof rack but not a raingutter mount system.
I have included a link to all of the options for a 2008 Mazda 3 sedan without fixed mounting points. If you like the Yakima system you will need the following parts:
58 inch crossbars # Y00409
BaseLine Towers # Y28TR
RoundBar Adapters # Y03536
BaseClips # Y06143 and # Y06111
