MY06 Honda Odyssey roof rail

[Saileng]

Does anyone know where to buy roof rail and roof rack other than Honda dealer?

they quoted me nearly $1000 fully installed. Very expensive for a pair of roof rail.

Yeah, read that thread...!!

To answer my own questions in that thread...(after you've read it)

I got the factory roof rails. Very solid and worth the spend.

Probably should not have got the factory cross bars until I had decided on the roof box.
Best bet is to get a matching pair...the Honda ones are an old design which makes it hard for non-Honda accessories.

I got a Rhino Rack 450L roof box. Nice size relative to the car. It lines up nicely with the rake of the windscreen when installed. Could do with colour coding though.

Adds about 1 or 2 L /100km on the highway. Also makes the car 2.2m tall so no underground car parks.......

Thx for the advice. Didn't realise that it will increase fuel consumption so much.

Don't know if it is real, but I got my Genuine ones 1 year ago for SGD $25 per piece, this one is only AUD $15.

Just thought someone might be interested.
