[quote=""5hep""]Thanks all for the suggestions and PVR for trying to rip me off
Where are the mods when you need them :lol:

All sorted: Went with

Thule 757 Foot Pack
Thule Aerobars
4 x Thule ProRide 591 cycle mount (new 20kg ones)
2 x Thule 596 One Key System

All fitted and working. Had to switch a couple of the 591 system around to get easier access to locks.
One key system is great. One key for all 12 locks.

Managed to find a company online that would refund the value of 596 key system when you return your unwated locks. :D

I'll get some pictures up but X has not had its wash today.[/quote]

Nice job...I have 3 to carry and that will do nicely. Where did you buy from 5hep?

Thanks for the pics.

Got the Proride 591 from a Ford dealer. Best price by far and they are the newer 20kg rated ones.

Roof bars and aerobars came from

They also do a exchange on your old locks to the one key system. Pay upfront and they refund your credit card once you send the unwanted locks back. Saved me £36 :thumbsup:

You will need 10 locks. Give them a call and they will sort
