    Just want to share what I did over the weekend. I had a set of 4runner rails that I installed on my cap. I will either do crossbars and/or basket.

    Any special drill bit you used to make holes in shell? Also what hardware did you use?

    Cool I am thinking about the thing. Any concerns about the weight on the top of the shell? Did you put a plate underneath or just bolts?
