Nissan Elgrand Roof Rack & Awning

[@SL-up5qh]

Is this set up for a roof top tent or will you need to drill the racks in and what's the maximum weight capacity for the roof?

[@captainskyleader9938]

Hi SL. This was set up just so l could mount a awning to the side of the van without drilling any holes in the bodywork. Ive only used 4 mounting points but there are 6 in total.if u were to put a tent up there l would use the other 2 central ones. I have, since making the video mounted a solar panel on the unistrut. It leaves about 30mm of air clearence below the panel which keeps it cool. Sticking them to the roof is not a good idea. They work better when cool. It also alows me to adjust the angle. As for the roof's capacity not sure. Cant find anything on Google. Sorry. Video of solar panel fixing coming soon.😊

Where did you find the mounts?

Don’t suppose there’s a link to the mounts?

[@captainskyleader9938]

Sorry my friend no link . they came from ebay and were only on there for a month and that was a year ago.

@@captainskyleader9938 appreciate the response! Currently struggling to find anything that fits and this looks perfect.

Can it be used with pop top

[@captainskyleader9938]

Hi thanks for watching. No I wouldn't think so. The mounts use the inserts on the Elgrand's roof and the cross bars are only 25mm from the roof top Luckily the Elgrand's sun roof drops down and inside the roof so clearance is no problem for me. A pop top adds extra hight the the van

The mounts. The unistrut and the plastic inserts all came from ebay. The mounts were only on briefly then withdrawn for some reason. Best keep an eye on ebay to see when they are offerd again. The awning was from 4x4 direct. In the uk.
