Hello Prius Fans,
I have a black '04 hatchback and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the best way to transport bikes and/or surfboards with a 2004 Prius.
Obviously I can put the seats down and lay the bikes flat, but I'd rather keep the interior clean. My board is 9'. I haven't tried to fit it in, but it's a tight fit in my brother's minivan, so I doubt it'll be able to go in. Does anyone know of a good roof rack for the Prius II?
Thanks folks!

I know the Prius in the UK has available optional roof rack mounts, but I don't think they're available from Toyota in the US. Thule and Yakima were in the process of adding the 2004 Prius to their catalogs a few months ago (fitting the car to the existing clips and such). I think at least one of them has a kit now, but I haven't checked in a while.
For the bikes, you can go with a hitch-mounted rack. You can get a hitch here:
