Howdy Guys. I am looking to bolt a roof rack onto my fiberglass top so that i can camp and surf at the same time. Anyone have luck in finding one? Or doing this before?

| Check out Thule, they have a website. I think you need a 542 artificial gutter. The artificial gutter bolts on to your fiberglass lid and allows you to mount a "normal" rain gutter mounting rack to your roof. You can use a Thule 300 footpack, or cheap roof bars and they will attach. Thule also make a high foot, gutter mount foot that will attach to the rain gutter and reach up past the fiberglass roof, but you would need to take the roofrack of to open the top. |

| A friend of mine had a pair of yakima racks on his westy for surfing. I'm not sure how they attached but most Yakima retailers will set you up with what you need if you tell them your situation.... Expensive though, you might want to go with the Thule if they work. |
