I know someone has this cap....
I've seen this before and I'm ready to buy it.
A member, I think in Colorado, has a blue '03 250 with a cap that has a roll out side canopy and kayak rack built in.
Anyone know who this is?

All the rack components are made by Thule. The canopy was made by a company called Carefree of Colorado, I don't think they exist anymore, but a bit of searching via the internet might yield some results or prove otherwise. Here's a quick Thule parts list:
2 72" load bars
2 pair 8" Load feet (gutter attach)
2 pair rain gutter mounts
4 locks
1 Evolution 2100 roof box
1 Carefree 8' X 8' roll-out awning
Hope that helps. Let me know if you need any more info. Trying to figure out where to begin on all those fuel system/tank mods......

I'm curious as to how it all mounts up there. Two or four point system? Drill through the roof to attach? Can ya get a pic of the mountings?
Are the load bars something special or just whatever?
Thanks!

Thule makes a false gutter mount, part# 542. You would figure out what bar spred width you want, based on what is going to be loaded up there. Since I was doing a rooftop box, I used the max spred the box would accept, 38" I believe. Drill the holes for the mounts and install them. I sealed all the holes with black silicone. Everything beyond that is self-explainatory, install the load bars into the load feet, set each bar into the gutter mounts, center the bars on the vehicle, and tighten it all down. Then you can add all the accessories you might want. I've had 3 kayaks in top plus 200+ lbs in the roofbox and not had any problems, except gas mileage goes to
