    I was also impressed so typed tigerz11 in google and found their site. Lots of nice things to spend on, but do I really need a rack and an awning? Can I justify it to the non-navigator, it's something that would be noticed, not like a chip exhaust tyres etc.
    NW GLX-R Pajero auto in Champagne; not anymore, it's gone to a new home. Now piloting a Y62 Patrol petrol v8 in pearl white.

      Compared to the Merc's front end damage and the Navara's two drivers side doors that were knocked out of alignment and a bit bent up the Challenger came out of it well and is still drivable. More cosmetic type damage, luckily as we are heading up to Bright and the snow in a few weeks.

      Guess it goes to show that they are well put together

            They sell a lot of gear and I'm impressed with the quality of what I've seen so far, I'll be getting an awning from them when they come back into stock.

            Sorry to hear about your rig j3st3r, Sounds like the time for Challenger damage as mine got hit in a carpark on Monday and the bastards didn't leave a note!

            and +1 to upgrading to a bullbar at their cost.

              I have thought about a bullbar but don't really want to have to alter the suspension to handle the extra weight on the front end, and as a lot of people have posted when they cut the guards they screw up inside the wheel arches.

                  Hi Chris4x4
                  How is the wind noise with the basket, also have you driven with just the cross bars if so how is the noise from them.

                    Sorry Tony I don't have basket yet just considering it I believe the basket has integral mountings and no separate cross bars, couple others have it and will reply
                    Cheers

                      The silver Challenger with the roof basket is mine Tony.

                      The added wind noise of the basket unloaded is noticeable but not enough to intrude at 100km/h, Once the stereo on I can barely notice any additional wind noise.
                      I expected it to make alot more noise than it does. I've found there to be no discernible wind noise below 80km/h either.

                      Since I have had several messages and there appears to be some interest - It seems several Challengers will be sporting one of these before long.

                      When fitting the basket, The process is this:
                      Screw the mounting brackets to cross bars ensuring they fit on the factory rails. Take note the factory roof rails are wider at the front and taper in towards the rear and the mounting points for the basket are not spaced evenly along the basket as you will see from the below photo..

                      Bolt the cross bars to the basket and then lift the completed roof basket/cross bar assembly onto the roof rails and then tighten the mounting clamps and put on the anti-theft nuts.

                      The cross bars can only be used separately if you remove the entire roof basket and cross bars, unbolt the basket and then remount the cross bars without the basket attached. This was not a factor for me as I don't foresee a need for 'regular' roof racks.

                      Here is a side view to give an example on where the basket sits and where the cross bars mount:

                        Can you take a photo from the front or rear of the Challenger, I'm interested in the amount of overhang on each side of the roof.

                          Howdy Marty,

                          Its a non genuine stainless steel bar that I got of ebay for $240 + freight. When it arrived the label on it said that it was for a 2006 Triton but it bolted straight up onto the Challenger chassis with the exception of the upper mounts where I had to cut through bottom grill and part of the bumper. The actual bar came out with out a dent or a scratch on it, from what I can see underneath just the brackets may need to be replaced.

                            Could the baja's be used to replace your other lights are they bright enough. I noticed o their web site it says you can get spot and driving patterns.
