Molle Panels for First Edition Roof Rack

Good question. Hope we'll see some solutions become available soon.
 
Is anyone aware of a compatible molle panel for the First Edition roof rack? Westcott's and Prinsu's only work with their roof racks.

This is awesome news! I love the look and aesthetic of the FE roof rack and wanted to keep and use mine too - this is perfect. Now I just have to figure out what I'd put on it!

Which Molle Panel did you use? Did it fit directly into the OEM roof rack without having to modify such as making new holes?
 
This Q&A had in my previous post. You can search through my signed name t3lcfe.
Anyway, here we are:
Victory 4x4 Molle panel. It is not designed for LCFE OEM roof rack. Wonโ€™t fit if without modification.
Solution: bend the top plate to the angle that work.
I just risked to order and experienced it myself and very lucky that all the holes of OEM rack still work!
Now everyone knows ;) ;)
Instead of 1 suction cup, I added another suction cup to increase โ€œ200% securityโ€ for me just in case I want to have 2 extra fuel cans hung on it during big drop rocky trails

Does the hardware that comes with Molle panels work on the roof rack?
 
Yes. All hardwares work well.
Picky enough, I replace all of them (shiny stainless steel color) by mate black finish bolts to blend well to the rest of panel and roof rack
In attached โ€œoldโ€ photo, you can see the stainless steel bolts

Iโ€™ll likely do the same. Any recommendations on where to get another suction cup?
 
Here is the exactly suction cup equipped/came with Molle panel.
Get same one from eBay:
Wood's Powr Grip 4.5 inch Vacuum Suction Cup with 1/4-20 Female Thread

Itโ€™s rated 40lbs load capacity. With 2 of them (80 lbs total) I can shake the whole LC
Note: DO NOT shake the panel too hard, the glass window can come off hahaha and I have no responsibility for it ;)
