    let me rephrase that, I need a mounting bracket. But i havent seen any I can buy that lets me keep the OE roof rack. Im sure its out there somewhere, but I know im probably gonna have to make one. I just want to see how people have done it already.

    Most that I have seen have been custom jobs. I haven't seen anybody that makes then in mass quantities to sell. Hope you find something, because I would love to have one.

    X2, that's pretty much all I've seen as well, outside of getting a true roof rack. There was a guy posting pics of his that he and a friend had made. Let me look around and see if I can find it...
