Fitting 2 Yakima ShowDowns on a 2003 Honda Element
Question:
Looking a the Yakima Showdown for a 2003 honda element with yakima round bars. Question is can you fit 2 of the showdowns on the cross bars or is it so big that you can only fit one showdown?

Expert Reply:
The Yakima ShowDown, part # Y04081 is 42 inches wide, and you'll only be able to fit one on your 2003 Honda Element because of the size. On the other end, you could use a J-Style carrier like the Yakima JayLow, part # Y04073 to carry your other kayak. This doesn't include full load support like the ShowDown but does have loading ramps to help guide the kayak up into the carrier.
I've included a video of the JayLow so you can see more about its features in action.
