People will probably grumble about this, but I use a single Yakima bar running across the very rear of the top of the van with fork mount quick releases and have the rear tires hanging on the back door. Drove 7000+ miles like that last summer with no scratches or scuffs whatsoever and the mileage isn't trashed like with top mount racks. No problem opening the rear hatch, and the bikes are easy to access as well. Use the same type of rack on your Honda and you're set. You can even get a bick pack of same key locks to make the whole set work together.

Hi! I'm wondering what is the best bike rack to get...we are looking for something that will go on the back of my 85 Westie but will also transfer to the back of a 92 Honda Accord...any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Rick
