Expert Reply:
The roof rack I recommend for your 2000 Volkswagen Passat Wagon is the 2000 Volkswagen Passat Roof Rack by Inno parts # INXB115-2 and # INXS150.
The kayak carrier I recommend is the SportRack Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs, part # SR5511. This is a J-style carrier and has fixed arms. This carrier also includes the straps and ropes for securing your kayak to the carrier and to your Passat.
The bike carrier I recommend is the Thule ProRide XT Roof Bike Rack, part # TH598004. This is a frame-mount system that does not require you to remove the wheel when carrying the bike on the roof of your vehicle. This carrier also has a built-in lock to secure the bike in the carrier and deter thieves.
