This ski holder, can it be installed on my car? I need you to check three things.

このスキーストックホルダー、自分の車に取り付けられるか。確認してほしい3つのこと

"Can it really be installed in my car?"

When considering this holder, that's probably the first thing you'll wonder.

Although it's written on the product page, this article will explain it in a bit more detail.

Confirmation Point 1: Can the headrest be removed?

This product is installed by threading it through the metal shafts of the headrest.

Therefore, you will need to remove the headrest once.

It cannot be installed on seats with integrated headrests or vehicles where the headrest cannot be removed.

First, please check if the headrest of your car can be removed.

Confirmation Point 2: Is the distance between the metal shafts within 18cm?

There are two metal shafts on the headrest.

If the distance from one end to the other of these two shafts is within approximately 18cm, installation is possible.

Measuring is easy.

With the headrest removed, simply measure the distance from the outside of one shaft to the outside of the other with a ruler.

If it exceeds 20cm, it will not fit into the base part and cannot be installed.

Confirmation Point 3: Is there any interference around the seat?

This product is designed to be installed offset to one side of the headrest.

If there are flip-up third-row seats or seats that slide back and forth, you need to check if there will be any interference when they are moved.

The vehicle used for development and testing was a Nissan Serena (C28).

While it is highly compatible with minivan-type vehicles like the Serena, the actual usability may differ for sedans or kei cars due to their different cargo area shapes.

In summary:

  • The headrest must be removable.
  • The distance between the shafts, from end to end, must be approximately 18cm or less.
  • There must be no interference around the seat.

If these three points are confirmed and there are no problems, it can be installed.

We want to provide as much information as possible here to help you determine "whether it fits your car or not."
