Yes I'm thinking something like this. The shell thing is a little bigger than the load bed so I might have to drill some holes or whatever but I'm cool with that.
Seasucker won't work because the thing has a rough surface.

Bike Carriers – Utemaster

Frontrunner makes tracks like this and then you slot roof racks into them and from there you ad the bike carriers. The tracks are pretty easy to diy.

Awesome thanks. Seems like a roof rack might be the best idea.

Sorry, forgot to send the pics of the Skitch racks, but they might not work with that lid thing you have on your bakkie

Hey guys.

So after much searching and thinking this is what I'm doing:

A mate had a Ford with the same cover but aluminum that seems to be a good solid construction.  We fitted 2 Thule ProRides with wingBars using the Holdfast gutter extrusions and Thule gutter clamps bolted to the lid. He has had no issues and used for few years now.
