halfords were hopeless.didnt have them in stock,then they said we dont sell them anymore.the only option is thule at £220. oh and they had none of them in stock!! >:(

Daz, what would make your life easier is if you got a 3 bar system with a roller, it make it so much easier getting the ladder on and off, I had this in my LWB Connect
This is the one I had

I added the Rhino rear roller to my Delta roof bars at a later date after deciding it would be a good add on.
Think it cost about £40-£50 with delivery.

I suppose an extra £2.54 is quite a lot more, I can see why you went for the cheaper ones  ;D
