Good point! I'm hoping the bed liner will help weatherproof it some. I don't plan on having it installed most of the time, but I know how that works.... I get lazy. Looking at Dur-Color spay on. Not as durable as Herculiner, from what I read, but more flexible and comes in a spray.volvite wrote:It looks good, but make sure you watch it close. I picked up an inexpensive roof rack a few years back for my old Grand Cherokee, and after a few months I climbed on top to wash the car and noticed that the basket was actually leaking rust onto the top of my Jeep from the connection points. I quickly got rid of that basket.
I know... It's funny how "some" items are so cheap here. But quality can be hit and miss. So far, I'd rate this as pretty good.Davidevovi wrote:Thanks for sharing, Its a shame that roof baskets this side of the pond cost around £400 ($645) with no where near as much choice as you guys have
I'm looking at making/modifying one (off my old Jeep) to suit the Pathy, keep the pictures coming, would be interested to see the fairing fitted.
Haha.. No patent... I stole the idea from another member here on the Forum.Touchdown wrote:Love the pics! Thumbs up on the basket and light mods!
I'm about to install a LED light bar on the stock roof rack very soon myself.
I may steal your idea, using the rear power source...you didn't patent that did you?!
I did not feel any difference with the basket alone.. was just noisier. With the fairing added I still cannot feel anything and it doesn't seem to have any effect on MPG just quieter. But I did haul box that's front side stood about 5" above the fairing's top the other day, and I could bot hear and feel it.akley88 wrote:before the fairing could you feel a difference in the cars handling at highway speeds?
