Roof Racks for C230 Coupe
I'm looking to have my SeaCoupe earn her name.
I have a 65 lb kayak that I'd like to transport atop the car. Since I have a pano roof, I'm leery having that weight on the glass.
What have people used? I think I need to have two cross bars and I can attach to that.

I have the MB roof racks for my '05 C230 Sedan. They attach to the door frame on the body. If you open your doors, you will see little triangles on each side where the racks attach. I think MB has attachments for bikes, ski, luggage pods, and surf boards. Don't know about kayaks.

I am sure there is an OEM solution out there. Of course, once you find it, please post pics. 
I've been thinking it would be something nice to have just in case.
