Title: Van Racks / Hooks
Post by: simbag on February 23, 2007, 09:02:32 pm: I was just wondering if anyone has found a good product, or has any good tips to buy or build an internal pole carrier. I have seen one for sale, but don't really want to fork out 100 odd quid for it. Brodex do one: http://www.brodexbms.co.uk/accessories.htm

I did think about trying to adapt some tool hooks you can get for the garage and trying to fix them somehow.
Any other suggestions? It'll be for a peugeot expert.

Thanks in advance

Simon

Don't ask me how much it costs because I really can't remember how much I paid for it!

I was just about to go on about gutter clips and self tapping screws but that is so obvious! Why didn't I think of this?
