Ive been looking to buy a set of roof racks for my rx.... i thought they were a stock item.. but mine didnt come with any for whatever reason... there are three sets on ebay right now in the usa... but they want $125us to ship them to canada which i think is a bit out to lunch... does anyone know online places to buy the oem racks besides ebay???

You think it really would cost that much to ship them to canada... just seemed a bit high to me... it basically would mean $300us for a set in decent shape from the pictures.... then customs fees etc... id end up close to $500 canadian by the time im done.... does that seem about right for the roof rack? id think i could get a thule or yakima rack of way better quality for similar cash.. but cant find anything online...

 

seems really high. I bought a set of used OEM roof racks for my 2000 RX300 which didn't have any (I bought it used) on eBay; it cost $128 incl shipping to have them shipped in the US. They are pretty light for the size.

 

Be careful that whatever you do, you don't get the early 'spindly' version installed on the early 1999s.

 

I was not aware they made two versions.

What is the difference, and can someone post up pics?

 

I do not know why you would want OEM when every 4x4 has roof racks these days and all will fit and most will look good.
