Bump.
Just wanted to get this back on the main page.
Does anyone else have a different or better way to mount stuff to the factory bars?

Anyone know the difference between horizontal and vertical mounts? The local REI store doesn't seem the cary the universal ones.
Horizontal = runs flat with the oval shaped bars on the VX
Vertical = runs up and down realitive to the mounting point

Top is vertical and Bottom image is horiontal...
Just depends on how the device you are using attaches to the rack...
ojmagg,
Do those Mighty Mounts work on our bars? I thought that is what I needed, originally, but when I went to the rack store we brought those outside, and they where nowhere near big enough for our bars. Maybe the rack guy didn't know of a larger version.
gexxo18,
The Big Powderhound needs the vertical mount. The mount point on the Mighty Mount will slide up into the base of the Powderhound and get squeezed between the two sides of the hound. (should be visible in the pictures I posted)
