Hi everyone, I have a 2008 dual cab with a Flexiglass canopy (Fibreglass type with a rear & near side opening out windows) I wish to fit a roof/boat rack onto the canopy to carry my 12' tinnie.....has anyone got a similar fitting? If so was it special make or off showroom floor. Thanks Robert.

It was mentioned Flexiglass.
A bloke out at work got a Flexiglass but had to make a special order for racks. Another bloke made up a frame under the canopy that then had bolts through the conopy to a roof rack/cage sorta thing for his tinny.
A 12' tinny should weigh about 85-90kg which is a little too much weight for a fibreglass canopy that doesn't have a steel subframe (especially when you consider that your racks will add another few kg to that as well). It will need a frame beneath it to give it the support it needs, or the corners could end up fracturing.

Can these frames be purchased at a reasonable price?
I've only ever heard of custom jobs.
