No roof rack.

[Stage7]

Which is why Miss Daisy will lose her FE roof rack, as soon as I get the needed parts to plug the holes. Left by the rack

Are there specific parts and part numbers for the FE rack delete? I like the look of no rack as well but don't want holes and gaps up top. Keep us posted on parts needed for this.

I may be in the minority, however, I like the appearance of a roof rack on any SUV. Adds a rugged appearance. However, I like the old school appearance of Land Cruiser / Land Rover.

In fact, I am adding Thule cross bars to add an additional layer of rack.

However, I would never actually my roof rack as I don't want to get it dirty....

Agree. I like the roof rails on the LC trim, but I’m not a fan of the ones like on the FE. Too much wind noise. And those big tubular roof cages make zero sense IMO, unless you’re really hauling a lot of stuff a lot of the time.

I agree. I have noticed a lot of folks with the FE racks are switching them out based on the wind noise. I do like the FE style rack, however, the wind noise would get irritating after awhile.
That is why I have decided on the Thule Aeroblades for cross bars. They are rugged in design, yet quiet.

I understand that others may not like the wind noise, and have no issue with that, but as an FE owner coming from a JLU soft top I could put a giant box made of kazoos on my FE roof rack with all the windows down and the sunroof open - and it would still be quieter than the JLU.

Haha. I’ve been there as well with Wrangler soft tops. They are akin to wearing a light wind breaker jacket at St Andrew’s.

The FE rack is good looking. I’m just not a camper / off-roader, so I don’t need the actual functionality of a roof rack. Only the appearance to make it look like I’m actually rugged.

I think I'm leaning in the same direction to be able to put a roof box for skiing. Do you know for sure if the Aeroblades will fit?

When I searched the Thule site roof rack systems, the Aeroblades did not show up as compatible with the LC.

The Thule site is not accurate with the new Land Cruisers.
I found them at the Rack Shop out of Austin.
