Sportrack Safari Basket (pics!)

Finally gave in and bought a basket for my roof yesterday. I did a search on Sportrack here, and came up empty, so I'll take a guess that I'm the first one showing mine off.

It seems to be high quality, weighs around 20lbs from what I could tell, very easy installation. Lots of accessories, including the net seen pictured here.

Rack was around $240CDN, and the net was $40CDN.

It's a little small for what I need it for, so I am going to install an extension when I find one.

All in all, a VERY nice rack from a not-so-common manufacturer.

Looks very good.
You have yours mounted the same way mine is, via the Yak towers and crossbars.

Now I get to mount some lights
It looks about the same thickness as the Load Warrior, I'm hoping the Yakima light brackets will fit on that basket.
I don't see why they wouldn't.

Looks great! I like how you have it small above the doors, never seen it that way before.
I don't think you will have a problem with the Yakima clamps on the fatter bars, they look pretty similar in diameter.

Canadian Tire
It was pretty darn cheap for a basket, I think I got a helluva deal over the Yakima basket I was looking at getting for around $500.
