HELP - Kayak & SUV roof rack system wanted!

I'm looking to get some racks for my SUV. I have a Cayenne and the racks I priced out at REI racks are close to $600 and do not fit the vehicle as well as I'd like. They didn't have the stuff I needed in stock my last visit and the staff today was less than helpful. Does anyone know a good website to buy the roof rack system and kayak racks; or another store besides REI to buy racks for your vehicle? I'd prefer to have someone install the racks rather than mess with it. Thank you for your time!

Cayenne?

"Prefer to have someone else install the racks..."?

Maybe kayak fishing is not the sport for you...

What exactly do you need? We stock Thule as said above and can help with install no problem. Most people prefer to have a shop install their racks, thats why we do it.

Maybe, you should stick to the post or shut your mouth.

No bars.

No bars, just the rail system.

All you need is the CrossRoads, they are super easy to install. 280.00 for feet, bars and locks. 15-20 minutes Max. install time. I have them in stock and ready to go, I can do it any day this week while I am here with a heads up (today through Wed). We dont generally charge install fees but do appreciate tips and/or beer for the favor

4 Runner racks are pretty easy too, not sure which one your friend has but nothing Thule does is really that hard.

Be sure to wash off your Porsche after taking the yaks off from use. The saltwater will ruin that beautiful car.

Go to OEX. Brent, CJ and Brian are the best!
