Hey folks, I know there has been tons of talk of roof racks, but I am now having a hard time figuring out which one will work for my low roof L300.. I tried a few at Canadian Tire but none were long enough to reach across the van, but the clamps would have fit the gutters.. Which racks work that aren't customized?? Thanks

Thule rain gutter...should be lots of used ones around.

Anything that attaches to a rain gutter should fit. Even a fab-shop should be able to make something for you.

Like they say any rack will do but a Crappy Tire rack will rust over time while Thule and Yakima have better longevity. As with most things you get what you pay for.

Just put a box on my rack and have no problems.

I bought used attachments for my delica (high roof). Then just purchased the bars off eBay. Any bars will work. You just need the right length. And there were multiple lengths on eBay when I was looking.

Hey Matthew, there is a new set of mounts and cross bars at the local pawn shop here, they won't fit my high roof l400, but I'm sure they will work on yours. I'll check them out better and let you know.
