Anybody ever install a bike roof rack system on a Beretta?

Wifey wants to Cycle and as do I.

Did the Corsica ever have a stock roof rack?

i am not sure there would be any way to put roof racks on, but they do have a trailer hitch for them, you can add on a bike rack to that

There are some bike racks that will fit on the trunk over the spoiler, but I'm not sure which one it is that works!

I'm sure you can easily buy something from Yakima or Thule that is either made for our cars or universal.

A quick Google search shows that you may just have to settle for a hitch mounted or a trunk mounted unit. But I bet if you dig enough you can find something for the roof. Hell my friend's Yakima rack that was on his VW Taureg is what he is using now on his Mini Cooper simply because it just happened to fit.

Yea I dont want a trunk mounted system. I want a roof,mounted system.

I googled it and I found the trunk one only for a beretta. There are universal roof bike racks but what I need is the actual roof rack that the bike rack bolts on to.

I will keep yall updated as I plan to get this done ;)

There was a write up on Beretta.net years ago by Brian. Most of the parts have been discontinued for 10 years. The guy I bought it from.

I believe that I have seen a picture of this item on a car before... I may have even seen it in person here in Colorado I don't know.

Well Im looking into getting a Yakima roof rack with the Q towers. Im hoping the Clips from a VW will work under the rainstrip. Someone is selling one locally.

If not then I will just swap out the Q towers and get those bolt on Towers.....water leaks concern me :(

No reason to worry about leaks if you drill and seal properly. RTV sealant and/or rubber gaskets work miracles.
