I need a new set of fixings to fit my roof box onto a pair of Thule Aerobars, previous bars were the square type and the existing fittings are not wide enough to fit the Aerobars.

Halfrauds stock 75mm fittings which would be ideal, however I'm not paying £24.99 for a few bits of bent metal.

Anyone know where I could obtain some?

The thing is that those "few bits of bent metal" are the right things for the job. 25 quid is not a great deal to pay when you consider how much the bars, box and kit inside is all worth especially if half of it ended up bouncing down the fast lane of the M5.

I ended up using exhaust brackets for exactly the same reason. Only a couple of quid each and fitted perfectly.
