| This little number is exactly what the doctor ordered! My little car can now carry those monster loads the big boys do. Talk about a boost to a cars' morale! Not only can I take my bikes, now I can load up the roof box with all of my precious little toys that wouldn't fit before! WOOHOO! I am so happy! Now I'm the envy of all the small cars on the block. | |

| A stretch kit isnt something you get really excited about, but it is a great product and totally necessary for 2 door cars when carrying things like kayaks on your rack. It was the cheapest i found it on the net and the shipping was supper fast. Moosejaw is such a fun store with inventive ideas for the shopping experience! | |

| Q Stretch Kit makes hauling fun. This is my first roof rack and I had no problem assembling the system and getting it to fit my car. The Q Stretch Kit is a great way to make use of a car with a short roof line it goes on quick and was much easier to install than I expected. | |

| My car wasn't compatible without this little invention, so I have to give it up to the little guy. It enables cars with longer roofs, or coupes the ability to have a rack! Its simple to install and it gives the rack a little more structural support. | |

Short Roofline? No Problem! | |

| Having a short roofline won't be a problem with this kit. It's fairly straightforward as far as installation goes. If you can read a manual, you'll have no problems installing this hoss. Also, it's cheaper than buying a new car with a longer roofline. | |

Go to www.yakima.com to see if this item is needed for your rack. If it is, don't sweat your short roof line, as this will do the trick. It's easy to install for anyone that can read directions. Highly recommended. | |

| I tell you, I was very impressed. For my little hatchback it worked out perfect - instead of heaving 16" between bars now I have 36". And it is holding up pretty good. Very high quality, and easy to install. | |

| Installed easy, and really fells sturdy on my car. Tight fit, I believe it is really safe. Can also double as a weapon if needed. | |
