If you've ever put padding on your Thule, Yakima, or custom built
rack, you'll know just how lame the whole setup can be. I've got custom sewn
padding covers on my truck, but that is very expensive. Mike Barber has a idea
and some products that might spruce up your car or truck a bit more than what
you've got on it now. Check 'em out:

In place on the rack.

Notice the precisely placed slots for your tie downs.

For a rectangular bar on your rack.

For round bars.

For aerobars.

Each pad is made from a sturdy foam. They are $29.95 per pad. Contact Mike at <<mbthermal>>.
