  1. General Honda Element Discussion
    For all of you who have it already, how long have you had it and how is it holding up? I'm going to get one tomorrow after reading all the great reviews on here. REI has a good deal and I got 20% off as a co-op member. Just curious to hear more firsthand experience and maybe see some pictures of...
  2. Trading Post
    I would like to buy a reasonably used and priced Thule Sidekick (8 cu ft) cargo box (or the similarly sized Yakima one). I already have the factory cross bars, so I only need the box (I think). Live in Eastern NC, willing to travel to most of Mid-Atlantic / Southeast to pick up. (Will bring...

    So several people say the 48" round bars are too short to fit the bicycle rack on the outer edge of the rack (with bike rack straddling the vertical support) - and others say you can cut the 58" round bars down as they are a bit long... but how long can you cut down the 58" bars and still get...

    I am in the process of purchasing a used '07 element and am looking for feedback on yakima racks - does anyone have input on the different types of bars (round vs. more aerodynamic), towers, etc.? I have a rack system already so am wondering if it's worth re-using some of the parts I already...

  6. Greetings & Introductions
    Hi all, I've been an EOC member for about a year now, have responded to a few posts, shared a few photos, but had yet to make any kind of personal introduction until now. Shopping for a different kind of vehicle was initiated last year when we got news of a baby on the way. At the time, I...

    I purchased a 2004 Element and got a great deal - the only issue with the vehicle was that the roof rack cross bars are missing. It has never really posed a problem until now. I am moving across the country and would like to utilize the roof rack. Does anyone know where I can purchase cross...

    I just got a sweet deal on Landing Pads (#9) and control towers for $90... they threw in a set of 48" bars as well. I know that the yakima site says its recommended 58" but I'd like to run the free ones until Im able to source some 58s cheaply. Could someone with a yakima setup measure and...

    I thought I would share this with anyone who might have the same problem I had. I have had my Yakima roof rack for several years now and the plastic pieces don’t always look that great. I am constantly applying Mother Back to Black to the Landing Pads and Control Towers to shine them up...

    I have a 2009 Element with factory rack with factory crossbars ( not round) I have a Yakima STEELHEAD fork mount bike tray- with a ROUND fit on front How can I mount this tray on my factory crossbars? Will 23H Mighty Mounts do the trick? Thanks
  12. Racks, Hitches & Towing
    Hi, I've got a dilemma...I bought a set of Thule feet and crossbars and now I want the capability to haul cargo up there, but I don't want to spend $400-$500 if I can avoid it. I bought a Thule Quest cargo bag from Target yesterday ($69) but it's about 12 inches longer than the span between the...

    The kayak racks are on and the Element no longer looks naked. From the '97 CR-V to the '05 Subaru Outback I just had to change the towers. From the Outback to the '08 Element the only thing I could still use are the Land Shark kayak saddles. 8)
  14. Exterior
    Greetings. I have a 2003 E with the Yakima rack already installed with crossbars. I'm looking for a rack that is long enough to provide support for a 24 foot extension ladder (collapses to 12 feet). Any suggestions? Other than Gobi ($1500 - haha). I'm willing to lose the Yakima system. I carried...
