Question:

How does this fit on an 05 Mustang Convertible with a rear spoiler? Does it completely clear the spoiler or is there contact? We really don’t want to install a hitch but love cycling. Is there a better choice than this without a hitch? Thank you!!

Yes, the Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2005 Ford Mustang convertible with a rear spoiler. The arced legs of the rack allow it to fit right over the top of the spoiler without issue. This will work great to allow you to carry your bikes and won't require you to install a hitch either.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
