Is there a removable back-rack that uses the cargo tie-downs? If not I think this would be a usefull accessorie that Honda could offer; protection for the rear window that could be easily taken out and added back in and anchoring to the four tie downs in the cargo box.

You can see how I modified the Back Rack from my full size GMC to fit the RL here.

Lets see.....Honda needs to figure out a better system for their rear windows. If you break one glass you have to replace the whole damn system!!! its a 6 hr labor job and an $1200 part!!!!! and thats for a professional glass shop install!!! They have to take the truck bed apart and the roof panels off. Mines been broken TWICE THIS YEAR! i have to find a back rack system to fit my truck because this is just getting rediculous. Any help of who makes one or what i have to do to modify one would be great. I saw some of the other post and got a few ideas.....what part number did the GMC guy have for his? Note to everyone.......hope you have no glass deductable because if you break even one piece window, you have to get all three!!

Thanks,
Those are some great ideas. The Scandanavian rack looks very professionally done.
I was wondering more along the line of an quick release - quick attach accessory with pins or another mechanism so that a permanent rack is not required. Is there anything like that on the market?
