Default Roof Rack Accessories - North America

Wondering if anyone knows of sources for some roof rack accessories without having to get them shipped from South Africa . I'm looking for things like the spare tire mounts, axe, spade, hi-lift, bottle, etc. Got some Jerry can mounts already. Actually for the hi-lift I'd love to find a mount that'll attach to the upper light mountings on my ARB bumper.

Yeah, they only have jerry can mounts and shovel mounts. The prices people want for the simplest things are crazy though, $109 for the shovel mount? I think I'd better sit down with some paper and a pen and just get a local machine shop to whip up a bunch of accessories. None of the shovel mounts seem designed to fit onto the side of the rack without the railing either. Perhaps it's time to go into another business venture.

Actually, with that in mind, what're the coolest expedition rack setups you've seen so far? Got URLs or pics?

If you like this setup, I purchased it from Urban Offroad (http://urbanoffroad.us/).

No more than 300 eh, Rover says 180 for a Disco. Damned alu panels.... I bet if you get a factory rail extension kit you can make mounts to get that on.
