The first photo at the top of this thread shows how amazingly Westcott Designs shipped the rack. They are real pros and have an expanding foam packing machine, so it was the real deal! I just shipped my roof rails and crossbars to an out of state buyer, via UPS and I packed with multiple layers of bubble wrap and then slid into a long box. It arrived just fine, good luck !@DctrEvil do you have more photos of how the rack was packaged by any chance? I’m going to ship mine to someone and I’d love to see how the pros did it!
You can buy an extra slat now. I just got and installed mine today. They are still scarce or back ordered so I think I waited for mine about 2.5 weeks after ordering and before it shipped. I think I paid ~$70 for mine.Thanks @Dr Bob . But I was looking for a way to buy just one additional crossbar for the FE roof rack. Likely not available from Toyota so was hoping to learn who the rack manufacturer is.
I got mine online here:
Wow, thank you for this...Where did you get the x-bar mounting screws or do the screws come with the x-bar?I got mine online here:

The mounting screw comes with the OEM rack (it covers the pre-drilled, pre tapped, hole for the missing cross bar) so all you need to do is unscrew it, put the new crossbar in place and re-tighten original screw.Wow, thank you for this...Where did you get the x-bar mounting screws or do the screws come with the x-bar?
Thank you...that's very interesting Toyota did that...glad I don't need to source the screws for my OEM installed rackThe mounting screw comes with the OEM rack (it covers the pre-drilled, pre tapped, hole for the missing cross bar) so all you need to do is unscrew it, put the new crossbar in place and re-tighten original screw.
I used Maxtrax's Universal Flat Rack Mounting Kit in my LC FE with OEM rack. Comes with everything you need to mount it, works perfectly with the OEM rack and holds up to 4 boards. Additionally it has provisions for adding a small padlock(s) to secure the boards in place. Only slight negative is cosmetic in that, when you are not carrying the boards, it looks as if you had 4 small antennas mounted in the rack. I jokingly call them my anti-mind control antennasHi all. Anyone here knows what eyelets would fit the FE roof rack? Also looking how to mount a set of Maxtrax and Rotopaxs. Not sure if the Prinsu or Front Runner accessories would fit the FE OEM rails. Thanks.
