is that a thule rack that you have on the car? if so what fit kit did you use and what feet did you use? I have a thule rack for a tempo already and there is no fit for a contique, did you use yakama for any of it?

Okay,

Here's the information about my racks. They're labeled as "XPort", made by Performance (Poorformance?) bike shop. It's a private label that uses an older, Barrecrafters style tower, with square crossbars similiar to Thule. It's the only other kit available for the Contour that I'm aware of. The Yakima was going to set me back a little over 400 for the towers, two trays, the crossbar, no fairing. This kit, back in 99 when I got it, cost me 200, including the cost of the fairing. This is also a locking roof rack, but only the rack, not the fork mounts.

The fairing is a Thule piece, only because it was the only fairing that was in stock. Oh, the crossbars are 53", I have 48'ers from my old Thule that I may put on.
