great, thanks for posting. At least I can see the size of them - not sure I'd like them on a silver one. Guess its the Thule Rapid option then. |

Rhino Rack is now available in the UK and is much much much much better than the Thule Rapid as is a proper custom fit and you don't need to cut the flaps off on your roof .

Are the LR ones an easy fitting job? |

Morning Gents, looking to for a set of rails at some time if anyone knows of a reasonable set for sale.

I was lucky enough to find a pair of genuine LR rails with the often missing end caps for £10 on ebay, I then had plenty of change, so I bought two pairs or roof bars, again on ebay, in case I needed them all. As two can sometimes be a compromise., they look a bit silly, but are quiet on the motorway etc. the rails are a one way fit as you have to snap off (and keep) the sliver flaps to reveal the blank screws to remove, to fit bars unlike sports bars which you leave the flaps up.. they rails are handed, so you need to be little careful. I used towels etc to roll them around. pierced torx screws, so get a torx driver from b+q and the caps snap on the ends. the bars are bit of job, but 20mins to fit four... again keep a towel at other end whilst doing them, you have to have each bracket loose and 'sliding' and then fit them, then centralise, as the bars are not front rear specific, unlike the sports bars. My rails had a few scratches on the black, which I will touch up in better months. I have coded a+ d pillars so they contrast the rails a bit too much, but black a+d pillars would be fine I was going to spray the rails silver, but thought better of it. aftermarket ones I cant comment on, but genuine ones are about £700 for rails and two bars I think. bars alone are £180 a pair. in a bag.

I have been wondering............... The FFRR is a reworked P38, from what I gather, so has anyone tryed some P38 roof rails to see if they line up? or has Land Rover moved it all around to stop cross compatibility?

Literally the only thing a P38 and an L322 share is Land Rover badges.

Remember the rhinos and the sports are fixed intervals the rails type are multi positions to suit roof boxes
