1-1/2” Johnson rods. Dude get ready to turn heads, our 90’s are very rare here in North Texas anyway. Don’t worry about all the posts about Defender issues, since 2020 LR has had a team to focus on and cure issues, I have 5000 miles on mine with zero issues. BTW you can remove bottom rear seat cushion, rear head rests, lay down back seats and cargo bay will be flat. I have dog bed in back and Yeti cooler with much room to spare.

Im hoping my 90X arrives tomorrow or Monday … the Johnson Rods and the TDI Tuner will be my first additions/modifications

A little surprised by the huge cut out at the rear of the rack for the GPS antenna. Do you think it causes that much interference that they need to cut so much out? Christ, I’d rather get the antenna moved and have the full rack!

I am surprised that auto manufacturers are still attaching a shark fin antenna on top of vehicles today. With all the tech available, you would think they could incorporate them into the body somewhere and we could all get back to having a flat roof.

Land Rover apparently disagrees with you. The new Range Rover actually has two "shark fins" on top of the roof. How they can incorporate sensors/speakers into the exterior wheel wells that pick up the road noise and then reverse that noise into interior cabin silence, but can't figure out a more elegant solution for the antennas is beyond me. You have to figure they gave it a shot, since that new RR is beautifully minimal otherwise.
