I will post a picture later of what I have.

I know they have changed the design of the bike racks, but I think you just want the bars? ( and the fittings to attach the bars? ).

There are a few options. The bars are a bit noisy at speed, so I bought a deflector.

You can also get a (adjustable ) basket.

Locks, so the bars stay locked on the car.

Ok, I got a quote on the bars, and the feet (towers) - with their clips, plus 4 locks, its about $300 US. EXCLUDING shipping.

I dont know about the shipping / postage cost yet. The place I bought from, says on their website that they dont send overseas, but I am sure that if I phone the shop where I got them, they will. I will call them later ( they\'re still sleeping! )

When are you going?

Remember if you buy them to remove them when you\'re not using them, it causes you to waste a lot of petrol LOL... I\'m not even joking...

Ok Sorry, I didnt call them yesterday. I am trying to find my receipt from them, and hopefully speak to the very very helpful lady who I met over there.

I work from home again tomorrow, so I will call then.

ok no problem......

gyles18 · December 10, 2006, 10:23:02 AM

any luck buddy.......

Martiny · December 11, 2006, 03:28:29 PM

Right, good news.

I called them and the guy remembered me ! !!!!!!

Anyway, he says no problem on sending us stuff.

So, what I will do next, is assemble the part numbers and send that to him, so he can come back with a proper quote for the stuff, and for the shipping.

Also, will probably put the rack on the FD again tomorrow, then I can send you a picture or 2, eh?

Here is a first view.

The bike racks are extra. In fact they have changed the design of the bike rack. I think the bars and towers are still the same.

Martiny · December 12, 2006, 08:54:04 PM

Another picture.

I have now compiled a list of the parts, and sent a fax to the shop, requesting a quote, including shipping. I will call them tomorrow / Tuesday.
