Kayak Racks for Volkswagon Bug
 
Does anybody know of after market racks for the new VW bugs ? Looking for
capacity of one or two kayaks. I got a set of Frontiers for my Corolla at
Canadian Tire for about $100 CDN. They are great and reasonably priced but
need mods for 2 boats.

There are no rain gutters on the VW bugs so I am unsure as to how they would
mount.
I'm sure that the dealers want an arm and a leg for them. A fellow paddler
is looking.
