In Accord, will it obstruct loading luggage or suitcase? What I am trying to find out is how much does it stuck our ?

Sorry for the late response. I actually bought it for my Nissan Maxima, and I had to slightly modify it to install it in my trunk. If it's anything like how it is installed in my car, it does NOT stick out and it is somewhat well hidden. It hangs about 2-3 inches down from the top of the trunk, so it does not obstruct any type of luggage or suitcase. Unless the baggage would reach really close to the top of the trunk?

Barely, if any. Don't worry about the suitcases not fitting, shouldn't be an issue. That being said I've managed to only fit 2 full size suitcases in the trunk and the 3rd case rode in the back seat! Not the biggest trunk I've had.

The grocery bag hook hangs about 1.5 inches below the rim and yes at the vey edge it would interfere, but a little further in there are so many other things also interfering that it is of little concern. The speakers hang down much further in our Accord.

The hooks are only 1 1/2 " tall. They do not cause any problems with loading the trunk.

Not really they are pretty steady since are rubber and protect very well when rain or bring water on your shoes. I won't trade them for nothing except new ones. I hope I answered your question or concern.

Comes down about two to three inches, will not interfere with any luggage you are loading in the trunk.

We have not had any problem with this. We took it off and put in a rental car without problem. It sticks pretty well as far as I can tell.

I have put a fully collapsed stick into both mid-sized and a large-sized suitcases. You might need to place it in a mid-sized suitcase diagonally. Be sure to put the rubber end cap on the point to prevent possible damage to your suitcase :-). I didn't have any trouble getting the sections to "lock" into place when I extended them. Overall, I found the HP-5 stick to be easy to use and very nice to have on uneven terrain.

I wouldn't - but if you do, proceed with caution. Perhaps if you have something non-slip between the luggage and roof, it might be fine. Make it very tight.

Hi there,After mounting the luggage doesn't wiggle. In regard to the passenger I leaning against, you have to install the plate way back (as far back as the luggage support of the bike allow you). The back rest is way to bulky and the luggage is very thin. If you have to much weights on it will break. It is very cheap made and on mine, already I had to tape the back light in order not to lose the whole light assembly. Better pay a little more than buying this one. The only good thing about this Bestem is that is light and big. Everything else is pure Chinese - low, low quality. Will not recommend. Hi there,After mounting the luggage doesn't wiggle.

We didn't remove ours, but all the luggage we used were soft bags and sleeping bags, so everything just molded around them. If you are using hard suitcases, it might not be great.

I think you could. if you just make sure you close the lid on with a clip that wont let it come off. We made sure it had a good clip when it went on a plane and you know how hard they are on luggage. I would say there is a way to figure this out with bungee cords or straps.

Yes it will....the dividers are removable and you can set up the entire suitcase like you want it. That is what I love about it. Hope this helps.

The issue with this luggage rack is not strength, but size--it is so narrow, a large suitcase might unbalance very easily--best suited for carry-on size suitcase.

Yes. We removed suitcases in the evening. But the zipper takes some work (since it's a heavy waterproof one) and the sides are not "stiff" so it helps if you have someone hold them open while you attempt to put things back in place.

Nothing really. The hole for the pin is far to small to stick a lock of sorts that I have found. Well anything substantial. I luggage padlock may work. Or at least make them laugh. Luck is the best answer. I tighten the crap out of mine with an impact and hope it will remain untouched.

I have but we had a hard time getting to down the aisle....its a pain in the butt becuase its so big. For around the airport I put it on a folding luggage rack, but it was too wide for the plane aisle my husband and the flight attendant had to lift it over the seats, but it technically does fit the airplane seat.

I don't have a van and I also don't have a luggage rack so I've put this on and off our car several times using the strap. I just don't see how it wouldn't block your sliding mechanism if you ran it through the back seat area. I think the luggage rack is the only option with sliding side doors.

It has two straps on the side to hold the entire thing closed. The handle just slides down and tucks in like regular rolling suitcases. Doesn't have anything to latch the telescopic handle in place. I've never had an issue with it popping up on its own. Hope that answers your question.

It is heavy and would take up all the room in your huge suitcase. I would not buy this for that. I would try something lighter weight.

It would get into a piece of luggage but not sure how much it would bend. Very firm
