Pole holders for roofrack??
« on: July 30, 2007, 08:17:47 pm »
Hi everyone,(1st post alert)I'm going into business with a friend of mine in about a month,and that passenger seat,sure looks uncomfy with those poles where my  head should be!! :o So here is my first task as a trainee W/C, does anyone know If you need specialised 'pole  holders' for the roof rack,or do any of you use the ones plumbers use for their pipes etc.Any retail outlets where they are stocked suggestions would be greatly appreciated also. 

Thanks in advance

Lee

Buy a normal one and cut a small section out for the gooseneck to fit into it  so you can lock it up overnight

when you say 'normal',do you mean a standard plumbers tube?

Thanks

Screw on end

And also some pipe brackets to fit to your roof rack about £10 in halfords.

The soil pipe's and fitting you should be able to get from most good builders merchants.
