Best Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for a 2003 Cadillac CTS

Question:

I see the video for the 2011 CTS, and a post stating it works with 2007 CTS. I figured it would also work with a 2003 but after clicking around a bit reading reviews, I saw a message at the top of the screen that this rack does not work with a 2003 CTS. Can you clarify? Better yet, tell me what is the best 2 bike trunk rack for an 03 CTS? I have become a little confused.

The best trunk mounted bike rack we offer that has been confirmed to fit your 2003 Cadillac CTS would be the Thule OutWay part # TH45JV

What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses 2 rubber coated straps to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes installation quick and easy..

It also uses the OneKey system to lock both the carrier and the bikes to deter bike theft.

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
