I made the original posting on this topic, but left out a few things I learned in my quest that might be helpful to others with oddball aplications. Yakima also sells tracks and a track-mount tower. However, it did not make one for my car. If it had, I would have gone Yakima. Yakima and Thule both sell 5" long sections of rain gutter, some to be mounted on vertical surfaces and some on horizontal surfaces. However, they are supposed to be through-bolted and require removal of your headliner, a 1.5 hour job for the experienced. Also, they require that the bolted-to area be flat. Lastly -- unlike a track -- they are unattractive when the rack is removed. Moreover, the load bar spacing cannot be varied.
