Constuctive feedback - I'm thinking maybe some vertical supports / spacers in the corners on future ones. I like to ratchet strap things down and would worry the straps may pull up the corners. Can you get them Galvanised then powder coated.. I've had powder coated bull bars on an old Rangie and once the rust comes through then it kind of spoils the look. I don't know if its possible to powder coat over galv... but I'm only up the roadish and interested in a little something for the Pathfinder..

My current 110 CSW has a chequre plate clad galved roof rack and its brill for the camping trips we do so something for the pathfinder that looks the part would be great.
heres my 110 in action...

Default mattress theft

Police in Staffordshire are currently searching for thieves, who are targeting 4x4 drivers, and stealing their rooftop mattress, police say they are vagrants just looking for a comfy ride and should not be alarmed, however should not be approached by the public and ring the local police line .

I guess the local police will "Spring " into action.

They won't let this issue "lie".

Do they use "Under Cover" police for this crime?
