    3 Evenings, lots of trips to the hardware store, and very little experience doing this but its installed.

    The rack didn't quite clear the GPS/SAT Shark Fin antenna so I had to do some trimming and filling. Which meant I had to drop my headliner which I hadn't done before.

    I think I want another 6 slats to make the rack more of a continues shelf.

There is enough time to make up your mind or find a doctor to sell your kidney or pawn your wife’s jewelry. If you are on the fence to see if it’ll go up to 15% before you jump in, you are HOLDING the group buy back. Don’t be that dude.[/QUOTE]

    Yeah .. Oh well it worked out for me anyway.

    I really don't understand the shark fin craze that all manufactures use for these antennas. Most of it is empty and they could make it a lower profile.

    Its possible I messed up the spacers but I read that several times in the instructions and their is an obvious size difference between the short spacers and the log spacers. If one of the short spacers was in the back there would have been a noticeable gap between the spacer and the bottom of the mounting rails as you would have one tall and one short practically next to each other.
