Scotia,
You'll find that the FJ club in the UK has already made their version, and I understand that Randy at RPM is preparing to do the same.

Still, if yours is a superior product...

I think that just about eveyone who was not lucky enough to purchase the Givi Y204 kit....would have some serious interest in a kit of some sort. I have thought myself of fabricating a Givi-like system.

Would you be able to post a few pics of yours?

My general plan of attack was going to be just acquire a Givi system that would be capable oh holding a set of E21's or something close..... and mate them up to the existing wingrack I have. If i can keep the signals great.....if not I will purchase an integrated tail/signal light from Randy at RPM.

Would you mind sharing how your project came to light?

I seriously hope Randy does develop a kit.....there is money to be had.... i guess the trade-off is the R&D in developing a prototype.

If anyone else has any tips....I would be eager to hear about them..... I have thought of starting a new thread...but fear it's repetitive.
