Roof Rack?

Anyone rocking a Thule or Yakima solution on their 2nd Gen TSX roof? If so, how does it look/fit? I have a roof rack on my 2007. Was gonna get an RDX, but I might stay with the sedan, as long as I can do a roof rack that doesnt interfere with the sunroof.

Anyone?

And please dont say "do a hitch rack." I prefer a roof solution.

Thanks!

Honda in Europe sells a roof rack for the CU2 Accord. Contact Marcus at HeelToe if you are not able to find a local Thule or Yakima solution.

That's exactly what I'm looking for. Much better than the aftermarket solutions which have the cross-bars sticking out of the side. Has anyone purchased this? Marcus, is this available?

Not sure if this would be useful, but came across a 2nd Gen with a roof rack online.

That actually doesn't look to bad. I might look into the Thule brand ones.

Thanks for posting the picture.

how exactly are the bikes attached to the racks?
i might be looking for a bike rack soon for 2 bikes.

the thule rack seems pretty reasonably priced and ive heard good things.
i just have no idea how the bike is actually attached to the bars.

i know the trunk mounted ones work but ive never seen a roof bike rack up close.

Just ordered a Thule Aeroblade set-up myself. The bars are 53". I have Yakima on another vehicle and I am hoping these are quieter. Will have pics after the holidays.

I came across this picture (White TSX) while looking for a nice set of roof bars and this is exactly what I am looking for. I wrote Thule but they apparently don't have these roof bars for TSX. Does anyone have the model umber for these roof bars and even better installation procedures

I as looking on Thule website earlier this year without any luck. But I recently found this, looks to be it? They have the from 2009-2012 CU2, and they say they are custom fit. Don't take my word, you might want to contact Autoanything first. I would pick up a set if they were cheaper.
