my snowboard fits in the back seat area if you do it diagonally. just get a good bag so you don't scratch up your interior.

Very reasonable cost and looks like it would work for both boards and skis...

Just a heads up. I called my local lexus dealer in Calgary and those racks apparently haven't been availlable since 2007. Parts guy told me he has no idea why lexus has re-listed it. If someone hears any differently please let me know. I am interested in purchasing one.

It's true, I've been scouring for one for a long, long time. It's too bad that we don't even have the grooves for a rack in the roof pillars. Lexus of Calgary is also the worst dealer to order parts from. Ever. They have failed to follow up on any request for pieces that I make and the ones they have followed up on were the incorrect part. Not a fan. Yakima makes a decent roof rack, it's a universal, but you don't have much of a choice. Get a friend with an SUV
