Title: Pick up roof rack's.

Another daft question can you buy a roof rack to fit a 110 pick-up or do you need a mate with a welder and some box section?

This is the sort of thing the Aussies use

but I expect you'd have to get one fabricated here, or acquire a couple of roll hoops from ex military landies and then knock something up.

Now that's the sort of thing I'm after. Anyone know if those sorts of things are available in UK for a SWB Truck Cab?
