    anyone tried this basket?

    Found this on e-bay and believe that an option for the explore is an avl yakima load warrior -> I figured it sould also fit the vx. It has no brand name but looks like it might be a pretty good part. I'm thinking about buying one but want some feedback.. mostly on looks. I e-mailed the guy for more info like spare tire holder. thanks

    I believe one of our members has 1 already, just cant remember who...a good search through the gallery should reveal him though I know I have seen the pic. It is nice looking and if its the same the one in the gallery it looks nice on the vx also.

    edit........

    Is this it?

    Thumbs up

    Looks like a pretty good knock off of the Thule "Xpedition" which I've had on mine for almost a yr.
    The only diff. I can see, is the side rails don't seem to have as much arc as the Thule...the price is def. right. Ck.my gallery 4 pics.

    I think Zeus has it

    I think ZEUS has that rack, I realy like the way it looks, follows the lines really well.

    I just found my info. on it. It came from agees.com, it was the larger of the two models (696) & cost $279. no tax, free shipping.
