    I have a 2007 tacoma access cab and am struggling to find roof racks. Been looking for a while and can't find much. Is there anything that resembles the basic racks with the side rails that sit in place of the weather stripping for the double cabs that will fit the access cabs?

    any product suggestions would be welcomed. Ideally trying to put on a roof basket as well.

    You're going to have to drill holes in your roof

    But it looks damn good

    are there no options for access cabs that sit in the weather stripping channel? Would love to avoid drilling through the roof...

    Thule has a fit kit for the Tacoma but by the time you buy the rack and attachments you're close enough to a prinsu rack that has much more versatility and capacity. It's only 12 holes no biggie

    Same here, I had issues with the airbag bracket at the rear of the roof nothing a punch and a hammer couldn't fix. Needed a smidge more room for the bolt

    Ohh. On the passenger side, I drilled the hole, but didn't put the rivnut. On driver side, just the rear rivnut is in. Didnt even bother with the hole. I don't think I tried to move the airbag

    I made a slight bend in the brackets to allow for the bolt to secure the rack properly, I also had to seal between the bolt and the spacer rain kept getting in

    Rhinorack makes tracks that fit in the gutters but again, you have to drill. Personally I'm not a fan of the way the Prinsu style racks look.
