I have an option that will allow you to use your Duncan TowMatic II Tow Bar.

Among the lighter-weight fixed carriers is the Curt # C18145 which weighs less than 30-lbs. If you need to remove it from your hitch (since it does not fold) then a lighter... view full answer...
You didn't mention which bike rack you have, but luckily enough one of my co-workers has a PT Cruiser that he uses a trunk mounted bike rack on. He agrees that getting those top hooks in place can be a challenge, but he's found that it's easier if you insert them at the top corners of the hatch, because the gap between the hatch and the vehicle is wider at that point. Once you have them inserted, you can slide them over more toward the center of the hatch.
If this doesn't work for you,... view full answer...

The Thule Passage 2 Bike Rack, # TH910XT, is listed as a fit for the 2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser, however, Thule does not test their bike racks of vehicles with spoilers. Some spoilers cannot handle the weight of a bike rack and bikes and will begin to bend or deform.
