you have to buy the roof rack kit thing, has the thing that attaches to your doors and the bars. Then you have to buy the clamp things that secure ur snowboard inn. Might cost ya around 2 bills. GL

WOW, I must say props to you, I have a 158, and I was NEVER able to fit it in the trunk, please show us the ways! Everytime I went, I had to put it in the back seat. Or have another car carry my gear and pack people into my car. I always had my gear ice chest etc in the truck and board in the back seat.

Im planning on going to Mt High too saturday, depending on this weeks weather. I just got all new board/boots/bindings, I cant wait to go up. Now I just have to solve the problem of the board fitting in the SC ahahah.

I want to go to Mt. High too but it's like summer still. Are you going to go to SkiDazzle? They give you a free all day ticket to Bear Mt.

Default My snow gear goes on my bike rack

Removing the inner trim panel of the trunk gives you more room to angle in large objects:

I started snowboarding last year and yes, the snow baord easily goes in the back seat. Mines long to (I'm 6'1") forgot the size.

The two armrests on each side act as the supports for my board. A perfect fit across. Makes a good shelf.
