Roof Rack Recommendation to Carry 2 Kayaks on 2014 Toyota Prius C and 2010 Toyota Prius
Question:
I just want to confirm that I am buying the most optimum size/length of rack for a 2014 Prius C. My ultimate goal is to be able to put TWO basic kayaks on the rack one with a J hook and one with saddles. I am also confused as to the part # for the fitting kit needed. One last question...if possible I would like to also use the rack on a 2010 regular Prius. Would this rack also fit that car? I would appreciate your recommendations.

There is a Rhino Rack roof rack that will fit both vehicles if you switch out the Custom DK Clamps and Pads. For the 2010 Toyota Prius, you will want the following parts:
Crossbars # RB1250
Leg Kit # RRRLKHD
Custom DK Clamps and Pads # DK195
For your 2014 Toyota Prius C you will want to add Custom DK Clamps and Pads # DK351.
Before you attempt to carry 2 kayaks on the roof of your Prius you will need to consult your owner's manual to determine if you have the carrying capacity for the weight of your two kayaks.
