  • Will the Hollywood Racks Baja 3 Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit on a 2008 Toyota Solera Convertible
  • The Hollywood Racks Baja 3 Bike Rack Carrier, part # HRB3, is a confirmed fit for your 2008 Toyota Solera Convertible and will fit with most factory spoilers. The Baja 3 can carry up to 3 bikes (35 lbs per bike), but you will want to consult your owner's manual to make sure that your Solera can handle that kind of weight. This bike rack does not come with security features, so to help deter theft of your bikes I recommend using the Cable Lock, part # e98891, and the Thule Passive Security...

  • Can a 3 Bike Trunk Mounted Bike Carrier be Used on a 2005 Toyota Solara
  • I have good news and bad news. First, the bad news is that the only trunk mount bike racks that are recommended for the 2005 Toyota Solara are 2 bike racks, because the attachment points on the vehicle are not capable of supporting 3 bikes and a trunk mounted 3 bike rack. The 2 bike racks that will work on the 2005 Toyota Solara are the Thule Passage, # TH910XT and the Thule OutWay, # TH45JV. Of these choices the OutWay rack is the easiest to install and remove and comes with locks for...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring to Tow Rental Trailer with 2002 Toyota Solara
  • Yes, Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 36336 for your 2002 Toyota Solara is compatible with any rental trailer. Hitches are not trailer-specific so there won't be a problem. Just make sure that the trailer does not exceed the towing capacity of the vehicle. To tow the trailer you will also need the following: Ball mount # 3593 1-7/8 inch ball # 19256 or 2 inch ball # 19258 (whichever size the coupler on the trailer needs) Trailer wiring harness # 119178KIT to power the lights on the trailer

  • Is Plug And Play Trailer Wiring Harness Available For 2001 Toyota Solara
  • The # 118407 trailer harness wiring kit is not designed as a fit for your Solara, but we do have trailer wiring harnesses that can be hardwired. It is a little more work but really not that tough. I recommend a kit like part # C59496. This kit includes the Modulite that helps protect the Solara wiring and a circuit tester to help you identify the correct wires on your Toyota when installing the harness. You can have someone sit in the driver seat and go through the functions while you...

  • Will Thule or Yakima Accessories Fit on the Malone MicroSport LowBed Trailer
  • While you can fit some Thule and Yakima accessories, like the Thule FastRide # TH95JV or Yakima ForkLift # Y02098, around the crossbars of the Malone MicroSport LowBed Trailer # MPG464-LB, the closest you will be able to get those crossbars is 44" which is well over the max crossbar spread length of the majority of accessories. An alternative option that would allow you to fit practically any accessory is the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer # Y08107. This has 78" long crossbars which are...

  • How to Determine if a Hitch Mounted Bike Rack will Clear the Bumper of a 2006 Toyota Solara
  • To determine if you have enough clearance to install you will need to take one measurement. You will need to measure from the center of the hitch pin on your hitch out to the furthest point out on the rear of your vehicle. This will tell you what clearance is needed on a bike rack to clear the bumper on your Toyota Solara SLE. This rack has a distance of 10-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin out to the upright portion of the rack. If the distance you measure is less than that...

  • Can Swagman XC or XTC-2 Expand to Add 2 More Bikes?
  • The Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches # S64650 you asked from or the Swagman XTC-2 # S64670 you asked about do not allow for 4 bikes with an expansion. Instead you will want the Swagman XTC4 4-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches - Platform Style # S64665. The 4 bike options require a 2 inch receiver and I've linked the page to all your options so you can compare and contrast if desired. If you want a bike rack that is expandable so you can use individually...
