I think it's worth giving it a try, they may well fit, I've got an 06 lwb hi top and a mate has the swb and I think it's the same width so should fit hopefully, the Bly difference is the high top is 'higher' and slightly longer, that shouldn't affect roof bars... Give it a go!

I'm pretty sure the might fit as the fixing points are directly on top of the roof, it would only take a minute to line them up to see.

It depends if it's a proper roof rack or just roof bars, if he has got just the 2 bars, then I'm sure they will fit

Thats how i read it...if its to connect to normal tranny then no chance as the  fixing points are different

Connect to connect then should be ok
