Availability of a Roof Rack to Fit a 2000 Toyota Echo 4 Door Sedan

Question:
Will this roof rack fit my 2000 Toyota Echo 4 door sedan? Are any adapters needed? I have no existing rails or crossbars. I want to carry 2 kayaks. I have kayak carriers that adapt to most racks so I just need the racks. Are the clips covered with something to prevent scratching?

The SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack, # SR1003, is confirmed to fit the 2000 Toyota Echo Sedan. The rack has rubber pads on the feet to keep from scratching your vehicle's paint. Also, before using clean the area on the roof where the feet pads will sit. The cleaning will guarantee that there will be no dirt or other contaminates between the roof paint and the foot pad.
Before you decide on a rack for your Echo, consult the owner's manual or a Toyota dealer on what is this vehicle's roof weigh capacity. Hauling two kayaks may be more than this car can handle, so knowing the vehicle's weight limits will be important.
