Should I get a roof rack from Leer?

Howdy!

I'm planning on ordering my Leer 100XQ today, but I'm stuck on trying to decide if I should get a roof rack from there. The advantages are that it would be done, and presumably it'd be warrantied as well. The downside is that I'm concerned about how good of an installation job they do. Particularly how parallel the tracks will be. When I installed them on the cap on my 2002, the were absolutely parallel...I could place the bars anywhere on the tracks without having to adjust the bar towers.

Does anyone have a Leer with factory rack that can comment on this?

Thanks,
Tad

NO

Get a yakima rack. many more options w/ the yakima stuff. easy to install and quick to remove.
