    Did a search, didn't find anything other than "google it".

    So, first off, is having a moonroof going to affect my ability of attaching a roof rack? And secondly, what are some of the beefier roof racks for Tacomas? I've heard you can put XTerra racks on Tacomas, is that true?

    Anyone have pics of racks on their truck?

    I'm not sure who makes them but on this forum http://forum.ih8mud.com/95-gen-toyota-trucks/202259-roof-rack.html
    they talk about a Coleman roof rack for sale at Costco and the price seems reasonable $75-80

    here are some possible mounting ideas

    Yakima makes good racks.
    Tulley is another..

    You can get Universal mounts from these that might be what you need to do.

    most of the time good Off Road shops sel them. and will help you find a kit that works.

    I bought a ventura from Proline for the roof, and built a custom rack for the back, over the tonneau to haul the bikes:
