I had this rack on my 2005 Prius, which I no longer have. I used it for my kayak, so there are some minor scratches on the top, but otherwise it is in very good condition. It is located in Southern California. James
I've added an album with pictures of the racks. The tiedowns are what I used to hold the kayak and can be moved or removed with just a wrench.
Yes, they do work great. We got our set off of eBay for a similar price. We also used them for our 5 week 7500 mile cross country camping trip (two adults, two teens). We had the fairing on front, bike rails on the outer sides (no bikes) and tucked dry bags with camping gear right behind the fairing, between the bike rails and right on a non-skid pad on the roof. We drove 60 mph and were able to average 50 mpg for the trip. PA P
I have the same setup - 59' with #20 clips in excellent condition, I'll sell for $175 also. They don't fit on my 2011 Prius and I can't find and info on waht size clips might work with the new one :-(. Also, I have very beefy/padded vertical kayak J-Cradles I'll consider selling also if interested.
