I emailed Rola to check the part numbers for the D5 only to be told they don't have a product to suit a MY18 D5.

I am waiting for Rhino and the Backbone system. I think this will look much better than the front runner one i currently have
Embarrassingly what I said previously is incorrect. Apologies to Rhino
If I had installed them correctly they would have been (and are now) fine. I'll blame Rhino's picture style instructions for not being clear. The trick with these legs and bars is that you have to wind the clamp out further than what you would think you need and then push the clamp in at an angle to get the cross bar clamp to rise up through the top of the leg, then slide the cross bar over the leg, tighten the clamp so it pulls the down onto the cross bar.
Hard to explain in words but once I understood how the clamp operates all was good.

Good news
I'll see if I can pick some up at the Sydney 4WD adventure show in 2 weeks.
Thanks

I ended up getting Thule Wingbars in black. I'll post pictures when I've fitted them.

From what I've seen, Thule's fitting kit seems to get around this locking onto the lip at the top of the rails which would allow the bars to be positioned anywhere along the rails.
On a side note, do I get a 2m or 2.5m wide awning?

Picked up a 2.5m x 2.5m Rhino Sunseeker awning this morning. Might have to wait a while to fit it all, as it is a birthday present

The bars are on, they fit very nicely on the rails. And you can position them anywhere on the rails too:

Awning next.
