Default Swap LC200 Black Roof Rack for LX570 Silver Roof Rack

I have an LC200 in Anchorage Alaska with the black factory roof rack and want to swap it with the one from the LX570. I'm thinking they are interchangeable but I'm not sure. Has anybody done this?

I don't see why they wouldn't be. They are the same truck, same body, same roof. I know that the 2011 60th Anniversary Land Cruiser in Japan/UK have the painted silver roof racks. If you decide to do this, please post pictures.

Hmmh... Actually, they are not the same length. The LC's roof rack is longer than the LX's. Case solved:

They are not the same roof rails but I think they are interchangeable because the roof has 4 places (contact areas) to fix the roof rails.

In the LC 3 anchor points are used due to the design of the roof rails and in the LX570 only 2 anchor points.

Simply look at your roof and if you see there are 4 contact points I think you're ok. I believe it was the same case in the 100 series.

This is just my own experience and hope it helps
