Roof Bars & Sunroof?

Has anyone installed roof rack / bars that has sunroof? Still trying to solve my dual kayak carrying dilemma (first-world-problem) with new TRDOR.

 

Rocking a sunroof and a prinsu rack. I can open sunroof or "raise" it no problems. Just set the cross bars where they dont affect it.

 

What part of NC are you in?

 

Hickory/lenoir area

 

I'm in Charlotte - may ask to drive up and look at yours if I order one of these. Thanks!

Do you have a picture of the top, looking down at the roof / sunroof?

 

No problem we can figure out a time and place if u want to see it in person. And i do not ill snap a few when i get done roofing this trailer.

 

How is the wind noise on the rack?

 

When u gotta work but hear the tacoma world notification

 

Wind noise is obviously there but its not that bad. Nothing the radio cant drowned out on a low level. I drive about 20 minutes doing 75mph to work every day and it doesnt bother me at all. But im also the guy that keeps his window cracked year round just to here wind noise and have fresh air

 

Would be curious to see this too. Might get a sunroof installed in a few weeks and I had my eyes on a prinsu. How is the airflow in there with the rack on?

id be more then happy to make a day trip and meet you somewhere too if you want to see in person. I dont mind seeing new places. But airflow is still plentiful even with the rack and light bar on.

But ill get some pictures up shortly

 

Thanks for the info...Oh I meant on a pic of the sunroof area with the rack set up for airflow. Would be cool to see it if I was ever in the area though.

Thought u may have ment in person too.
Here a couple picturs for everyone. One of the gap between the bar and sunroof as well. Also this bar could be moved furture foward which will increase the gap.

 

Thanks a ton! I'm guessing the bars directly above the sunroof can be moved to have a completely open area? Much appreciate the help!

 

Yes the bars can be removed or moved to anywhere on the rack

 

Thanks for the pics! Is your sunroof able to go completely inside the cab or is a moonroof? Talk about a tight by good fit.

Yes it is able to go completely in the cab

 

Oh ok good, I was mainly considered with the prinsu wind blocker if that affected the airflow at all with the sunroof?

Can't imagine that doesn't make contact when that cross bar has a load on it. I'd probably move it, no need for it to be such a tight clearance, outside of aesthetics of having the cross bars equally spaced?

 

As far as air flow coming in the cab from the sunroof? Im sure it was affected some but i still get plenty of airflow if thats what your asking.
