Permanent Mount Roof Rack 2002 Coupe 7th Gen
Permanent Mount Roof Rack 2002 Coupe 7th Gen
Hi,
I am interested in getting a roof rack for my 2002 Civic Coupe. Being that it is coupe I am not interested in a door jam mounted setup (no back door = the bars would be like 10" apart), thus I am interested in one that will permanently bolt through the roof (in the bodyseam gutter ideally), hopefully with racks that detach from the bases. From my research no one builds such for the '02 coupe -if I missed it I would be happy to be proven wrong. So I am looking at using mounting feet that are not design for the Civic, and trying to determine the best options, but all the installers and manufacturers I have contacted have been dedicatedly unhelpful.
So have any of yall done anything like this, or have info on such. I am not planning for much weight, just a bike/odds and ends that don't fit in the trunk well, here and there. Currently I am looking at the Ditch Quick Mount options from Rhino Rack, anyone used those on a Civic, or have them on another vehicle and want to take some measurements for me? I have removed my headliner (fabric was getting loose and the following
and the frame appears more that strong enough at the points I wish to mount.
