After finding out that roof racks cost anywhere between $200 to $400 I decided there had to be a less expensive way for me to haul my kayak. Fortunately I found a universal fit roof rack that was only $28 on Amazon! http://goo.gl/vDtf

I was a bit skeptical that it would work, but so far it is great. I even installed the Thule kayak carriers that came with my kayaks with no problem.

It is a little scary trusting four straps attached to the window wells to hold a kayak to the top of my car, so my next step will be to make this roof rack a little more permanent. I think I will use some flexible epoxy and possibly a self tapping screw or two to hold it in place.
