Hi,
I could use a bit more space in the holidays. A roofrack and a box (Thule) would do the trick.
Until now I've only seen a roofrack that can be bought at the Toyota dealer, but none at Halfords that fits. Is this roofrack so special that only Toyota can sell it to me for a high price or has anyone found a reliable substitute.
Thanks King
Halfords do a Thule rack and box that fits the Prius - I know this cos I just fitted it! You might have to go to one of the bigger Halfords stores to find this stuff - but it is freely available on the Halfords web site.
You need to ask for Thule parts no: -
762 (standard) or 862 (Aerodynamic) bar set. 750 Roof adaptor kit 1345 Fitting Kit - this last item will need to be ordered in - only takes a day or so.They fitted mine for me in about 10 minutes at no cost.
The box was a Halfords (actually a re-badged Thule) 470 litre EXODUS in nice, glossy black - same as the car. It all looks rather smart when mounted on the roof and cost around 370 UK pounds all in. The box can handle 60 kgs - although I don't intend to load it anything like that much.
PS if anyone knows I'd love to know what the maximum roof loading is for the Prius - I can't find a reference to it anywhere.
