For your 2005 Honda Accord 4-door, I recommend the SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack, part # SR1002. This easy to install roof rack has adjustable footpads, and when used with the numbering system inscribed on the crossbars, makes the rack easier to install on your Accord. You will not be able to use the sun roof on your vehicle when the roof rack is installed.

I recommend the Thule The Stacker, part # TH830. This is a post-style carrier that will allow you to carry the kayaks side by side on your crossbars. This system also includes 2 adjustable tie-down straps to secure the kayaks to the carrier, and bow/stern tie-downs. I have attached a link to a product review video for this carrier you can check out.

You will want to check your owner's manual or with your dealership to make sure you do not exceed the roof weight capacity of your Accord.
