Trunk-Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for 2009 Toyota Corolla With Factory Spoiler

The trunk mounted bike rack you reference, Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Carrier # HRE3, is not recommended for your 2009 Toyota Corolla with factory spoiler. However the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 3 Bike Rack for Vehicles, # HRF2-3, is a confirmed fit for your Corolla with factory spoiler. The Over-the-Top rack solves the problem of a rear spoiler; it has an additional upper arm piece that moves the top straps up and over the spoiler so no stress is put on it.

If you plan on carrying any women's and children's framed bikes you may be interested in purchasing a Hollywood Racks Bike Frame Adapter Bar # HRBA-PRO to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.

Check out the video review of the Hollywood bike rack and adapter bar that I have included.
