    Just have a few questions about the install. I bought a used oem roof rack. Has anyone found a similar clip to use instead of the yellow one that comes with the rack? I'm talking about the yellow clip that connects the mounting bracket to the roof rail.


    Also, Do I need to use mastic washers or can I just us a standard stainless washer.


    Thank in advance for all your help.

    I think stainless is fine, maybe phoscoated.

    Call your local toyota dealership for a hardware kit. Mine has them for 10-15.00 cokes with the Christmas tree clip, bracket, bolts, and washers with foam padding.
