Thanks. No unfortunately I don't have the matrix anymore. I traded it in for the vibe three days ago. It had over 250,000 miles. But after all the cars I drove the new vibe was my favorite

Welcome, Anthony. Franchitti... do we like to race? Stay tuned to our Erie, PA Meet discussions. I know you're closer to Philly than anything, but still. If the meet happens, new members are very much welcome.And I've said it before and I'll say it again, the pre-2008 era looks went to the Matrix (XRS), with 2009+ ...Vibe (GTs) are the "looks" winner.
Well I am a downhill mountain biker (local competition) and a mountain sport enthusiast. Right now the vibe is a fun commuter and a car to carry my goods. Right now I'll probably leave it stock for a while because of my budget (I'm only (I'm only 20) but I'm open to free things working or not Actually I would like to get the roof rack cross bars that came with the awd vibe. Anyone know where I can get them new or used??

Anyone know where I can get them new or used??There have been a few sets on ebay of the Matrix ones, which will also fit and are more of a traditional roof rack style. They are a bit much new IMO. There is a thread on here about it.Also you can look on http://www.car-part.com for a wrecked AWD Vibe or Matrix close by and see if they still have the roof rack on it. If you look, search for a rear driveshaft, AWD transmission or something only the AWD cars would have.Most of the Matrix did not have the roof rack since I think it was only a dealer installed option, but here is a good pic of one with it:Good luck and the car looks great! Love the color!
