Re: Home made cross bars
No problem here with thinking outside the box, you only have to look at the back of Phillipa's X-Trail and my Navara to see that, but as for reinventing the wheel, why bother, especially if that "wheel" is covered by ADRs and/or other government red tape
It seemed that filtrail had everything figured but the actual mounting (the tricky bit) I suggested a possible solution of buying the complicated bit to join to the parts he made or the alternative of a ready made solution at the cheapest price I could find (ie my cost plus $1). What I felt I got in return was an insult - not a good way to win friends and influence people so I responded in kind - not very clever in my part and for that I apologise to filtrail and the rest of the forum.

Re: Home made cross bars
I'd just settle for a gigawatt laser for those right lane hogs
