How to Carry a Paddleboard on a 2009 Toyota Venza with Bare Roof
Question:
I have bars from my last car, but need to fit to my new to me 2009 Toyota Venza. No place to fit into no rails. Kits I’ve seen in here to fit Venza say “does not fit to Venza with sun/moon roofs”. So....I have the 53” bars, what kit can I get to make those babies fit? I’m sick of my paddleboard sitting and not being used! Please help.

The only option I can offer you to carry your paddleboard would be with a universal foam block system like the Malone Deluxe Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier with Tie-Downs part # MPG171 which comes with both foam blocks and tie downs to secure your paddleboard. Unfortunately, Rola does not offer a roof rack for your 2009 Toyota Venza with a bare sunroof so there would be no way to use the crossbars you have now.
