I cant see any rack, it's too dark. Try taking pics in daylight.

try clicking on the picture

nope, never seen anything like it. But is it just screwed into the roof?

yeah got it all centered up. marked and drilled some holes, and used sheetmetal screws with silicone. its plenty stout.

i wonder why they would make a factory options that is screwed into the roof, while there are those rails where the roof rack normally would go.

so you`ve got some holes in your roof now?
outch!

yeah there are little 1/16" holes covered under the rack. when i decide to take the rack off there an easy fix.....woopy woo
