Hello Anyone got a Roof rack for the 2009 Matrix yet? The toyota "Luggage carrier" is way back on the roof which is not good for 16' canoes Thulé does not have a rack for 2009 matrix yet. The rep. at the car rack store tells me that when Thule gets a rack it will probably fit in the roof holes for the Toyota rack. This would place the rack far back on the roof (looks like the front rack would be almost behind the front door). Yakima has a rack with Q-tower and hooks in the door openings. It would be at a normal position (not far back) but the rep. tells me this type of setup is sometime problematic because the hooks are at a very high angle and, if not fitted very carefully, the rack can slip out. Plus the yakima is rated to 100 lbs only. Not enough for two canoes. I dont want a flimsy rack and will not buy the car until i am sure i can get a decent rack. If anyone has first hand experience with the yakima rack i would appreciate the information. Thanks, Sylvain fauvel AT emt dot inrs dot ca
