I posted some pictures in the Member gallery. They are on pages 71 and 72. They also explain my screen name.....

The factory racks are topped with yakima bars via stainless hose clamps. Watch your head!!

Looks good. Ever think of getting a extra towing eyelet so you would have 2 to use as front and rear tie downs? I bon't like haveing all that over hang without having the tips tied to something.
