2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Auto Zermatt Silver

Roofrack

I would be very interested in getting a roofrack for the LR2, similar to the one for Disco4. Below are some pictures of the ones I am reffering to.

Does anyone have an idea who manufactures them or where they can be found?

I don't think so, the Thule one is quite small...

Prospeed one of the Disco3 forum sponsors make a replica of the G4 rack for the Discovery3 but don't think the do one for the FL2 but worth checking.

Rather bizzarely I have found the Diaconate with a Roof Rack, not sure it's a G4 replica though.

Once that gets up to motorway speeds, the 'racks going to get a bit unstable though...

Not really. I searched for them and the ones for Disco4 are about 1,800 USD - I think it's way too much. As I wrote here - http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic11820.html - I made a custom one for my Freelander 2, for only the back part of the roof. This was about 200 EUR and it can be modified to fit for the entire roof - I would suspect a full size one would be no more than 400 EUR.

2011 Freelander 2 SD4 XS Auto Zermatt Silver

I bought one of these, bolted directly to the MontBlanc bars I had from my FL1

http://www.direct4x4.co.uk/images/product/large/532.jpg

The clamp feet just fit on to bars with an inch to spare either end. It sits a bit high due to the bar sitting on the clamp on the rails but is secure and holds plenty. The drop middle allows long items to go through and shorter stuff gets lashed in to the sides. Prog rock is cool!
