    Cool that was one I was looking at. How do you like it? The other one I was considering was the 42" Tough-Light... but that's still pretty pricey, however I think Jon is a vendor IIRC.

    I have heard good things about those portable shade Foxwings.


    Hopefully in a month or two I will be able to help contribute to this thread.

    Add me to the Rola/Unistrut list.

    I used deep channel unistrut...a 10ft piece cut in half. My mounts are the unistrut channel mounts in the stock "gutters" with a hex screw and washers. The spacer is simply a threaded coupler measuring 1.5". What I like about the set up is that the tension on the mounts to the roof rails is separate from the tension on the basket. I've had it all installed for 5 days now and no wobbles/looseness at all. I bought the Rola and the extension. I really like how it all looks put together. Click image for larger version.
