Looking for the Subaru bed-mounted bike rack to fit a 2005 Baja (turbo).
Or if people have other good solutions, I'd be interested to see them or hear about them.
Thanks.

Re: WTB: Bed-Mounted Bike Rack
Its going to be hard to find the Subaru OEM one, and if you do it probably will be more expensive.
The cheaper solution is to buy 2 bike fork hitches and either mount them on the inside of the tailgate (forks facing back)
OR what I think many have done and mount the hitches on a metal or wood plank and lay that on the 2x4 holder towards the back of the bed. There are adjustable hooks you can buy to attach to the plank and the tie down loops under it. If you look at the bed at the 2x4 holders towards the back (rear window) you will see them
