Prius User-Guide (2010-2012)
OTHER
External Cargo
Prius is equipped with remarkably handy tie-down eyelets. Their original purpose was for ocean
transport from Japan, to provide a convenient & reliable method of securing the car to the boat.
Owners have found the very opposite to be true as well, securing a boat to the car. Located in each
of the 4 corners under the bumpers, you’ll find those handy metal eyelets for tying down large roof
cargo like a canoe.
Removable & Lockable roof-racks can be used for kayaks, canoes, bikes, and cargo carriers.
Yakima is the brand shown in the photo below. Thule & Saris brands are also available.
The configuration shown in the photos use the
following components:
• Q-Towers 4 = $130
• Q-99 Clips 2
= $30
• Q-5 Clips 2
= $30
• 66” Round Bars 1
= $55
• Mako Saddles 2
= $60
• Hully Rollers 2
= $70
• Lock Cores 1
= $35
It’s about $375 retail to carry one kayak, and
an additional $130 for a second (as shown to
the right). The rack can be used without the
optional $35 lock cores.
To reduce noise and improve aerodynamics,
this shield can be added:
44” Fairing 1 = $55
