Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2017 Honda Civic Sedan
Question:
I have a 17 Civic. What rack assys would you recommend for this car for a single kayak? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Honda Civic sedan with a naked roof the roof rack I recommend is the Rhino Rack part # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK453 as it gives you an easy to install rack with aero shaped bars which will minimize wind noise.
Then for a kayak carrier I recommend the Yakima JayLow part # Y04073 which is a padded carrier that can fold down when not in use and if ever needed could be expanded to carry 2 kayaks easily.
