What Rack?

Looking for a roof rack for the RA to carry my kayak and the peddler. Something with a wind deflector on front because it cleans up the look of it. Yakima looks good? Any opinions?

Try doing a search on here and also the evo x section. Supposedly the towers for the toyota corolla fit the RA's.

I got the Inno base rack system from ORSRacksDirect.com Just tell them it's a 2008 Evolution, because they don't have the 2009 Ralliart listed under the fitment chart. The system is significantly less than the Thule or Yakima (even includes locks at no extra charge) and the quality/fitment is great.

I wouldn't recommend Inno's snowboard clamp that slides out though, it's too high profile and the slide feature just isn't needed unless you have an SUV or something tall.

I'm not sure if I found the right parts or not but the Inno system appears to have a clamp that comes down the side of the car to hook into a window frame. It doesnt appear to use the factory mounting locations. Is that correct?

Yes, the Ralliart sedan doesn't have the factory mounting locations. Those are only found on the Sportback versions, unless they changed the sedan for 2011.

sorry planing to sell as whole, i'll try to look for closer pics. there isn't really mounts for it. it will grab on to the window/door trim using the fitkit. virtually any car with similar body as your car will work. I don't think they sell fitkit for evo's but you just have to find a similar vehicle. My fitkit is from my lexus is250 which fit my evo fine.

evil03, yeah i know about that. DaJackson was referring to the mounting points under the rain channels that the Sportbacks have.

Exactly...I thought that was a Ralliart thing not just a sportback thing.
