    ROOFRACKS - What are 150 owners using???

    Guys.....

    I starting to do some research into Rookracks for our 150's and was surprised not to find any previous Topic on the subject within the 150's Accessories section....

    So I thought I'd start a thread to gauge what people are using as a RookRack for their 150's.... Pics too would be VERY helpful to gauge how/what the racks look like.

    Due to our garage height restrictions, I was looking at removing the original bars & use the Rhino Roofbars and when needed, simply bolt on the roofrack(preferred) or basket..

    What do people have out there ???

    Check out my build thread for pics.

    I'm using a Rhino Pioneer Platform rack to keep the overall height below my standard garage door. no lift kit, just upgraded springs and shocks and a Foxwing awning that just makes it it the garage.

      I am using Whispbar S45 Base Rack they go directly to the factory rails so you don't add any height to the car.

          What sort of RoofRack/Basket are u using and how does it bolt to the roofbars ???

          From their Website, they say their good for 75kgs.... I guess that's per bar + the price listed is $329 but they don't say if that's per bar or a pair.... if it's per bar then that's $660 for a pair which I reckon is a bit high

            That 75kg would be evenly distributed over both bars.

                        Im not after a rack, the OP is though.

                        Also the spelling in my last post is atrocious, I should type so fast the iPad can't keep up and it's stupid autocorrect ruins everything.

                              Don't mind the look of that one..... What sort of $$ is on that one ??

                              I gather the original OEM bars are removed to fit this one...... If u want to remove that "Rack only", is that the legs and everthing or something different?
