Mostly just a preference. I like the idea of not having to worry if I drop something while loading it and hitting the roof. Large open gaps just seems odd to me... Plus it would be nice to be able to stand up there, maybe lay down and watch the stars. I guess i could add more cross bars.

I'm sure you could add expanded sheet mesh but I would be worried about causing a rattle or vibration where the mesh meets the crossbars. It might get in the way of tie downs as well.

Haha glad it could work out! Fingers crossed for you.

This thread went way off track but the $10 deal was all good! Thanks again for posting that CL link. Oddly, he said only 1 other person had expressed interest. He didn't even make me cart off any of the stuff shown that I couldn't use (bumper, etc). Great guy with a beautiful house and all the best armor and gear going into his own rig.

He does have a set of tan cloth-covered rear seats in pretty nice condition with the carpet-backing piece, belts and bolts if anyone here in the Bay is interested.

You could maybe do more cross bars and the Sherpa plate thing they have, I’d imagine you would get close to having almost all the gaps covered depending on spacing. Would probably get a little pricy though

Yeah I thought about that, but now that the sales are over... It's over... Haha

Honestly the more I thought about it the more I've been thinking that maybe I should get some kind of inexpensive universal one and build my own mounting bracket.

It really does bother me how overpriced all roof racks are.
