i bought the stainless ones from bongo bits, or the bongo shop here?

anyway there a couple hundred quid, iv had 5 long boards on mine down the motorway.
its fine............ but!!!
at each end there are loops to make sure what ever you put on doesnt slide off the side. you will need to remove these if you want to put boards side by side as they dig in and bent the boards.

oh and get a teliscopic ladder, its pretty high up there.
