I have mounted 2 pairs of the Hella 500's on my tock roof rack, so yes, it is possible. I bought some square u-bolts from lowes, putting the bolt under the rack and the piece of metal that comes with it on the top of the cross bar and mounted the light to the piece of metal. I'll see if i can find some pics as these are no longer mounted there.

no problem, i cut down one of the u bolt posts so it didnt block the light. Actually mounting the lights doesnt take much time, its running the wires that takes a while (at least for me).

any yakima dealer should be able to find them.... and order separately... I got a pack of 4 for $20...

i dont think those brackets will fit the stock rack andrew. its wide and not round. could also just drill into the front main cross bar.
