First of all, I've run a search and found this one:
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=21812&p=213361&hilit=bike+rack#p213361

BUT, I don't like the way that it sites on the spoiler. When I got my car the spolier was loose. The other day I took it apart and realised here was only one decent fixing bolt, the others were all broken. Anyway, one I couldn't get decent, and the other two I've put a heli-coil in which seems to be quite sturdy, so basically I have one good bolt and two half decent ones, nice and tight spolier now. BUT, I don't fancy putting 2 mountain bikes on it!

So, is there any bike racks (or dimesnsions so I can buil one) that don't use the spoiler as a fixing point? Ideally one that sort hooks under the lid or something?

Anyone home built one?

Thanks

dude that one i posted usws no spoiler mounts. its designed for cars like the sol where there is a spoiler to avoid. its weight is mostly on the boot and the straps that hook around the end of the boot.

Ah yeah - I see, so it doesn't - sorry, I'm being blind

Thanks

Checking out these posts, as my old Halfords special bike rack doesnt fit a Del sol, my previouse car Accord, and before that Civic no probs, however the Del sol no chance, noticing these posts are very old , can anyone help?
My car doesnt have a rear spoiler !
Any help as to where a rack can currently be bought would be appreciated .
