This style of rack would be perfect, looks a bit too modern to my eye for the Grenadier, but the design is pretty intriguing.

That is Summer Auto Parta, she designs a ton of stuff for the L663. She thinks outside the box for a lot of her designs.

$3600 for a roof rack? Yikes

Posted this before.

Never seen them in real life, but concept-wise these would allow to leave the front open where the windows open as well as not carry useless metal when having a RTT installed.

Also like the fact that connectors hold airline / utility rail equipment.

I think that there are a lot of options to cut some plates and keep it functional. So you can open and remove the safari windows.

Hi, just posting this option I saw on a FB group with credit to Andreas Gienger. It's from a company called rolling-space out of Germany. A weird look, but an option.

Great to see multiple rack options from the Germanic companies, but why are most of them flat panels? Do Europeans have a thing for standing on the roof of their vehicles?

If you want to do it right, get a British farmer to engineer it:

Growing hops to make your own beer is where it's at lads. Beware though , they will spread into your flowery beds

Bugger me, it’d be a keen eye that spotted a clover from up there.

My “planA” is to order one without the rack to get the lights, then see if I can get a dealer to order a rack as a replacement part. Body parts have to be replaceable after all.

Also, yesterday at the test drive, I had inquired about this very topic, and they told me a 3/4 was being developed by the maker of the full factory rack. I’m not a 3/4 fan so that’s “plan D”

For those of you that haven’t driven the IG, the safari windows are very cool and add a TON of light and pleasing aesthetics to the cabin IMO.

Yes and I've said before consider whether the negatives outweigh the strong positives.
It's a very nice feature of the vehicle and as mentioned , very cool
