Yakima Bike Rack Question

A question (well, more than one).

1. Does anyone use a Yakima roof mounted bike rack?
2. Did you mount the towers 12 inches apart like Yakima says, or did you stretch them out further?
3. How is it working? Is it secure?
4. Can you open the sunroof easily? Are the bikes in the way?
Any other comments on the Yakima racks on the Mini?


Thanks!

There are several threads that discuss the Yakima bike rack already on MINI2. Try a search for Yakima, or, if your quick enough, click here: http://www.mini2.com/forum/search.php?searchid=80384 to see a search I just did...

Well, the father wants something a little more current. Has someone actually bought the rack as it came out this year and used it? I checked through those links but didn't find anything concerning this years model.

Thanks.
