Its a universal rack,I have one aswell,it needs rather large rubber feet that look like big suction cups,and it should have 4 long fastening braces on it,they should measure about 25-30 cm in length.And they came in white or silver originally.

The feet sit flat on the roof and the rack itself is raised slightly above the roof.The four braces grip onto the gutter trim holding it inplace.

I have seen an original rack like this in perfect condition,it came with a type of deflecter in the front for deflecting airflow over the luggage in the rack,to help with lowered wind resistance.

I do plan on restoring my rack,....so no guys,its not for sale :D

:oops: .....two,four,..whos counting any way? (Mine hase got 4)

I have come across a number of sterling racks like the one Pine has got on his square,(I have on like that on my bus at present) but I have only ever seen 3 racks like the one youre advertising.If I was you,I would hang onto it,its a wicked looking rack when fixed properly!
