You can copy mine also if stuck. It will be coming off in next few days. I love the look also.

Here's me and my best friend at top of Mt Nameless this week for a selfie.

I'd be interested to know if you can extra tie down points as a part.

If you're referring to the eyelets. Yes, any Rack store or eBay..

Thanks. It's the little plates I thought might be special.

I have some of the fittings, but not a full set. By the way, both of my Expedition Racks were bolted directly to the roof. I didn't use rails, to try and lower the profile a little.

I just sent you a pm before seeing this,Im up in the city tomorrow or the next day,I will call past your unit to see if you are around.No problem if you aren't,there isn't a rush.I have to re-furbish the rack before fitting.
CHEERS.

I can't wait to see what this new roof rack on LandyAndy's D4 is going to look like. I see that he is chasing some mounting brackets, but I've also heard a rumor that he has been using his woodworking skills to make up his own brackets and rails just in case the genuine articles are too difficult to come by (or do not look as good as his hand craft).

First attempt at trying to mount cross rail to the "track" on the roof of the D4.



Second attempt - definitely looking better Andrew.



And how to attach to the Disco front rails ..................



One attempt at keeping it all "low profile .................



And the "deck" of the rack, ready to carry anything at all. Just needs to have that "wind deflector" bolted back on, and it's as good as an import.



Looking forward to the pics of the finished product .....................
