Hello all, I'm looking at getting a roof rack for my 2009 FL2 (for the purpose of carrying a roof box) but I do not have roofbars. Therefore I need a roof rack that fits another way (if that's possible) Any suggestions? I was toying with the idea of getting the aftermarket roof rails but I don't really need them to be that permanent and it'll double the cost as I'll still need the roof bars to fit to them. Of course if that's the only way of doing it. That what I'll do.
I have the HSE version with the sunroof so that would need to be taken into consideration.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You need a 'foot pack' and bars appropriate for the car. If you go to the Halfords website (halfords.com) they have a tool which allows you to enter your car details and it will tell you which roof bars and foot packs are appropriate. Even if you plan to buy elsewhere this will give you a good idea of what you need.

Here's mine fitted with Prorack Whisbars & Skiguard roofbox.

Thanks for this thread. Been putting off getting this done due to the cost of getting the rails put on, holes drilled etc. I had no idea you could get feet that didn't need rails.

Brilliant pab. Thanks so much. That's exactly what I needed to know. Dunkley that looks awsome in fact I think it looks better than the factory bars. More rugged as a LR should. That's spurred me on to do it.

I do also believe that prorack now do an adapter kit which fits into the mounting points for the roof rails, although I think it's meant for a more permanent fixing as you have to drill holes in the plastic trim.

Does anyone know if it's definitely ok to use the older footpack 750 instead of the newer 745? It's all about saving £££

I've just tried to send you a PM but prevented from doing so as I haven't posted on this forum before. I've just removed roof rails from 2009 FL2 HSE and was just about to list on flee bay. Very easy to remove so I expect very easy to fit. If your interested get back to me.

Thanks Andy
