We do offer a roof rack that is compatible with your 2013 Scion tC. It is the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack - Vacuum Cup Mount # 298-SX6000B. This rack utilizes vacuum cups that each are rated for 210 lbs pull strength. They are easy to install and store when not in use. If you will only be using this rack for surf boards then you may instead want to consider the SeaSucker Board Carrier - Vacuum Cup Mounted - 2 Surfboards or Paddleboards # 298-BX1806 made specifically for that purpose.

Please note that the sun/moon roofs cannot be opened when the rack is in place and the rear hatch will not open fully when surfboards are loaded. This rack system has a weight capacity of 150 lbs, but you will want to confirm in your Scion owners manual that the roof can handle the weight of your particular load.
