LR2 Roof Rack
#11
Hello
I just got my 2013 LR2 and would like to get my kayak on top. The factory roof rail is nice but it does cost a fortune (just for the rail, not to mention the cross bar).
Do you think the factory roof rail really make a big difference?
When I purchased my LR2 at the dealer today, they had a crossbar in the showroom. The crossbar really resemble the Thule AeroBlade Edge to me.
Thule recommend
480R Rapid Traverse Foot Pack
ARB53 AeroBlade Load Bar Pair and
KIT1443 For 480 and 480R Foot Packs only
Is there other option there?
I'm concern that the coated foot packs could mark the car.
Thank you very much.

You can go with third party racks no problem. I purchased the roof rails and cross bars because I didn't like how the Thule/Yakima bars attached to the car and I wanted to be sure I could use the sun-roof. I found the cheapest price on ebay from a dealership in Ft. Meyer's Florida (FM Imports / Land Rover). They had the best prices on the OEM parts.
Anybody know where to get replacement ones? Dealer wants $165 for the hardware kit that includes these trim pieces,
Thx
