Roof Rack?

Just seeing if anyone has any rails on their OS. I was thinking of putting some up there to put a luggage rack for long road trips.

can you put a rack on the roof with the panoramic roof option? I have Kayaks and have been wondering if it would be a bad idea to slide them up there with a glass roof, one slip and I could have a open top convertible.

Here is the Thule parts you'll need:

http://www.thule.com/en-US/US/Produc...dium-Foot-Pack $189.95

http://www.thule.com/en-US/US/Produc...-Load-Bar-Pair $89.95

Or, the Aero package one:

http://www.thule.com/en-US/US/Produc...dium-Foot-Pack $189.95

http://www.thule.com/en-US/US/Produc...-Load-Bar-Pair $149.95

With either kit you'll also need a "KIT3093" for installation: http://www.thule.com/en-US/US/Produc...ylocks/3093999 $84.95



For reference, the Mitsubishi OEM accessory is cheaper... http://www.mitsupartsworld.com/mitsu...cessories.html $239.95

You definitely have the sport appearance package on there.... It comes with the bumper diffuser, bumper step guard, trunk lip protector, bigger spoiler, front bumper trim, front corner extensions, gas cap, and I think that's it... But from what I can see, you have it, and that means your spoiler is actually much larger than ours

do you have any luggage containers for that rack? Did you do the install? Do you have any other pics from different angles of the whole car?

For us that don't have roof rails. Where should we even begin? I know you need to get foot posts, and then the cross bars, but what kind of foot posts do we need? Do we already have a gutter system that it attaches to?
