Just be careful since they are shipping with UPS...they will charge you all sorts of taxes and custom duties....

I think The white's link is only for us to see the rack...Does it include a lock to lock the bike in place with a key?If you don't mind Volvo being writhen on the side, I might be able to give you a good deal on one.If you are interested, I could take a pic of it and email it to you, it is way nicer looking then the one in your link...

Do you have the oval shaped bar or the square ones???If oval, how wide are they in inches?

I have both, the overall and the square ones that go over them. My ski rack is on those, and I was planning to use them also for my bike rack, as the one I'm planning to buy.

Just to let you know, If you buy thru UPS, at that price you'll get a charge of about 40 Can$ from UPS.About 30$ for the broker + the taxes.

I know. I sent e questoin to the guy asking if he's willing to send it via USPS. it was 3-4 days ago, didn't get any news at this time.

So Ben, what about your rack? will it fit on the square bars? probably, because it's a Thule bar, with a GM logo. so if your rack was for a Thule, I'm interested. The one I'm looking for on eBay is now close to 40$, so it's not worth it anymore. Yours might be a good option besides a new one

Sorry for the delay... yes it would fit the square bar.125$ + taxes...

all right, thanks. I'll keep it in mind while I'm shopping. Thule is suppose to sell the one I'm looking for 100$, but if I don't find it or it's more expensive, I'll know I can take yours.and don't worry for the Volvo written on it. as for GM tag, I'll remove it
