Yakima only makes a roof rack that fits it, and I wanted to avoid that is possible. The Saris Bones is listed as being a fit. However, given the posts affirming inevitable scratches, I may be looking to have a hitch installed.
I am quite happy with my Sarris Bones 3 -- but if I had it to do over again, I would get a hitch installed.
When I got it I had just started cycling and didn't know if I would continue and/or how often. So, I didn't want to go the expense and trouble of a hitch.
... I wish somebody would have told me this cycling stuff is so addictive!
BTW: the manager at my LBS likes the hitch racks where the wheels sit on shelves rather than the kind where the bikes hang like from a rack.
