    If you look at the fit guide for the pioneer there is no mention of L322 and Rhino will say they don't fit. BUT, the cross member that attach to the legs are not attached to the platform when you get it. There are predrilled holes in the positions required for the vehicles that are listed. It is a case that no one has documented the exact position to fit the cross members, so you have to fit it up and drill new holes to secure the cross member to the platform frame.

    I just had a pair of "whisbar" bars fitted today for $359 from Roof Rack Superstore Yarraville.
    see here

    They actually look less obtrusive than on the website, and I fitted mine on the rear and front, not rear and centre as in the photos.

    Cheers,

    Fraser

    cheers
    The one's I had fitted fit with the flaps still installed, with some other bars, you have to break off the flaps.

    Well fitted new Rhino base parts today and there sure is a big gap between feet base and roof ...looks very untidy. Can't help but think the flaps (now sitting vertical) need to come off.

    You are right, doesn't look right at all.
    Is there definitely no groove in the base for the flap?

    Is there a rubber "spacer" supposed to go on underneath that part?
    -just a thought.
