It's from the Devon 4x4 ad in this month's Land Rover Monthly. I've never seen a rack with tubular steel frame going all the way around the base of the hood, almost like a roll cage. I looked at all the racks on their site but can't identify it. Anyone, especially overseas that get all the fun parts, know which it is?

Cheers!

You do realize that thing "going all the way around the base of the hood" is a snorkel, right?

not part of the roof rack...

There are a bunch of different tent platforms available for the disco that are similar to that one.

here is the tent:

looks like this one to me:

that lower rail I think is part of the light bar.

"base of the hood"...meant "base/perimeter of the roof". Sorry, too many drinky drinks. I'm talking about the steel round-bar below the platform on the rack that follows the roof profile, which also appears to be supporting the lights.

And I've seen the racks for the Disco...Hannibal, ARB, Baja, SD, etc. What I've not seen on any of those is the round steel bar that the rack platform appears to be attached to.

Ok, clarifying. What is this? Like I said, I looked at all their racks online and didn't see a match. The rack itself looks like many others (the part supporting the tent)...but this extra bar seems to be a bit extreme to mount just the lights up front. I've got an email to them that I'm waiting to hear a reply from.
