IIiya, whatever happened to these brackets?
Oh so sorry I forgot to follow up on that...
So it's still on my todo, but only for a wall mount and not truck mount. The reason for the truck mount is safety concerns - I got a R1T to check it out and there is only 1 anchoring point I could identify per side. I tried printing this in carbon fiber (super strong filament) but still if you have a single mounting point I fear it's not safe enough and it may break. The biggest issue with that is that it may break on a freeway, fly away and hurt someone else on the freeway. I certainly don't want that on my hands, hence - wall mount only. I haven't developed the wall mount yet though as the last month or so I've been very busy setting up the new laser cutting production line and catching up on MagSafe pre-orders and the next highest priority thing on my list is releasing the floor organizer, and once that's done I will be doing this, maybe mud flaps and a few other things :)

Oh, I definitely want the wall mount, not truck mount! Instead of storing the crossbars on the shelves, I want to make them useful on my wall as "hanger shelves", like towel bars. If you come up with the wall brackets for the crossbars, I want two sets!

Hey folks

I finally had the chance to find the crossbars in person so I can finish & test the model. The cargo crossbars wall mounting plates are now ready:

I LOVE THESE THINGS.

I lined the mounts up so one vertical row (column?) of screws is in a stud. It was super easy and way neater. Even the wife complemented it; high accolades from someone who hates ANYTHING in the garage other than cars!
