    ebay universal roof rack experience?

    I am looking for some Yakima Lowriders to show up on craigslist in my area, but am tempted to try something like this:

    48" BLACK STAINLESS STEEL ROOF TOP ADJUSTABLE CROSS BAR CARGO LUGGAGE RAIL RACK by seller carpartsinnovate

    Though it says it fits our vx, i have my doubts. Anyone have experience with these type of outfits?

    I plan on using it for a small basket or cargo box.

    I don't think that this was the set that VXorado used, but he did use something similar to it (it might have been Yakima equipment), but it fit the VX just fine. Hopefully he will chime in (with pictures) when he sees this.

    Yes, Yakima Lowriders are the way to go if you decide to go aftermarket. Hold out for them on craigslist over an ebay cheapie. I think I only paid around $50 for the lowriders.

    ...and Mark, I actually have an old picture already on the site.

    I've got an OEM roof rack available for sale in case you're interested!

    In fact, I may have 2, as I took my own off and will see if future buyer of my VX wants to work it into deal or not.

    PM me.
