Hey guys, I did a search and couldn't find much, was wondering if any here had roof racks on their 3rd gen? I'm looking into buying a kayak for weekend use (going on little day trips to go kayaking:cool:) but obviously it won't fit in the back of the wagon, seeing as they're about 2.5-3m long. I've seen some for sale, Rolla racks or something, but for $300 I can't really justify it... might as well just hire a trailer!

Does anyone have any cheaper roof racks for their 3rd gen? or does anyone have any they're looking to get rid of?

I have a set of Rola Sports Racks that I bought for my Verada, I've never used them and they're just sitting unused, however I'm pretty sure they won't fit on a wagon though :(

I got mine of a mate selling his car to go OS. Rollers rock.

Keep an eye out on Ebay or if you see some on a car in a car yard ask if they will sell em cash.

I got a pair of bars to fit a TJ sedan from Supercheap Auto for $100 (on special). They fitted no problem, not sure if the wagon is the same setup as the sedan. Car has now spat the transmission so I'm thinking of junking it.
