Roof Rack help

So i snowboard a lot and I'm looking to get a roof rack for my 2010 RA and i went onto etrailer.com and choices are

im pretty sure we have the normal lancer roof, the evo roof is aluminium and has a buldge at the end- our roof is completly flat like the base lancers

If your going with Thule you want the THKIT3071 which is the fit kit to mount the foot to the car and either the 460 or 460R foot pack. The 460 is for a square bar and the 460R is for an oval "aero" bar.

If it fits a 2003 Corolla, it fits you.

buy from www.rackattack.com, quick shipping and if you call the boston store ask for pat, broc, or adam and tell them you know tj and to give you 10% off everything. i used to work there and those guys are my homies.

edit; looks like rack attack is having their annual 20% off sale, sale ends dec 5th, hurry

do you have the FK3071 on a 4dr or a sportback? the 3071 is for the sportback roofs, but if it works on the 4dr then this would be the system to go with as these screw into the roof doors instead of scratching your door jams

Sportback. The screw style is much cleaner than the other style. If you go to Thules website it will take you through which kit to buy. Then just google search for the best price.

I'm trying to find a roof rack for snowboarding as well. Here's my dilema(sorry dont mean to jack, just thought I'd add):
All the racks for the 2010 Mitsu RA SB are the kind that attach to the door. But we have slots on the roof to screw in a rail??
There has to be something availble; I checked the FK3071, that is for the door jam as well...

The part numbers I listed use the mounting points integrated into the roof.

Just FYI the Sportback is the only one with the intergrated screw-in attachments in the rain gutters.

The sedan does not have this and you need the normal clamp-style base.
