It went on my sports coupe with two doors! Thus, it will be a success! Make sure you space the straps as far apart as possible to get a good hold of the board. I was a bit worried bc the roof slopes down a lot in the back, but it's no problem, you just have to make sure everything is tight.
There was a great deal of vibration noise on mine as well! By twisting the section of the tie that goes from the boards to my car, I was able to solve this issue. I completely got rid of the noise! Hope you have a great time!

A soft bath mat was placed between the roof and the surfboard to absorb the shock and prevent the board from bouncing. After unpacking, you need to determine which straps connect the surfboard to the roof. There will be a surfboard loop with the S-shaped teeth

This rack is amazing because you can literally take it anywhere and use it on any vehicle with no problem. Only complaint is that it takes a bit of time to put it together, but once you are used to it it's easy. Worth it considering what else is on the market.
