Question:
I have a 2008 Hyundai Sonata, with no roof racks. I have a 10foot kayak. What type of roof carrier system do you sell that will allow me to carry 1 kayak atop my sedan? I dont see anything on your site that will fit my needs. But I see kayaks carried atop regular sedans all the time.

Expert Reply:
You'll need to start by adding a roof rack to your 2008 Hyundai Sonata. A great option is the Rhino-Rack aero bar system that consists of:
46 inch Crossbars # RRVA118B-2
Legs # RRRLKVA
Fit Kit # DK037
Then you'll need to add a kayak carrier to the roof rack. The two main styles of roof carriers are the J-style, like the etrailer J-Style # e98878 that holds the kayaks on its side, and saddle-style, like the Yakima DeckHand # Y04083-2 which carries the kayak with it laying down. Either style will work just great on your Hyundai.
