Done! Didn't realise I had to select it once I'd uploaded it.

Doesn't seem that bad a curvature. probably best to test a roof box on them, i would hazard a guess that there is enough "give" in the fittings to allow for the curve, and enough height to overcome the flat bottom of the box ? .

Also check the width of the bars (front to back) - IIRC they are wider than the Thule bars and not sure if all roof box clamps will fit around them........ |

Thanks all. I was wondering about the Thule vs Land Rover branded boxes. Thought they were the same, but perhaps the clamps are different. Suppose I should find one and find out! I want to get a bike carrier too but I think the curve in the bar may make it lopsided unless it's in the middle.... |

I've fitted the roof box and it fits great!

I saw a FFRR recently with roof bars, but they were fitted direct to the roof without the front-to-back bars if that makes sense. |
