Hello VXers!
I think about Yakima fairing for my VX, but i don't know which is fit for it. If somebody take it on VX please let me know what kind of fairing fit for VX.

Not all having to do with Tule per se, but should be enough info for you to decide what size etc...:smilewink

And as an added bonus, here are 3 used horizontal mighty mounts for sale...http://www.vehicross.info/forums/showthread.php?postid=174957#post174957

Yeah, I've seen workmeistr's fairing in person and it's pretty sick. If I wanted to do a fairing, I'd follow his blueprint.

You can get away with mounting this WITHOUT Mighty Mounts. It is actually more flush and tighter to the roof. I loved mine and thought it looked great, but the years of weather wear on it made it brittle and ugly so it went to salvage-land.

:yeso:I have more pics, if needed, just let me know. Feel free to call as you alter the Mighty Mount clamps and the supplied Fairing clamps. Hopefully you can see what altering was required in the pictures.

Thank you Workmeistr, please send me some pics to my email viatcheslavm@hotmail.com.
One problem I have just three Mighty Mount clamps, but I think may be needed four.
