Default roofrack set up

looking for the best(best I mean value: best cost to effectiveness ratio) Roof rack/basket set up...for both Camping and snowboarding...the kit should be compatible with the rail's on an 06 LR3 and easy to install and remove...if you guys can lead me in the right direction that would be most excellent!!!
