Finally after much searching I found suitable cross bars for the Touring. They're 99-01 Ford Explorer units. I had to modify the bases a bit and cut the actual bars down by 15-20mm. It was relatively easy. I've been doing a bit of work to her. Just finished up a 3M wrap. Waiting on new door handle surrounds.

Cool! Got pictures or a little more detail on what you did to make them fit?

Huh. I just used Thule stuff, but that looks pretty good.
I just had all the Thule attachments already.

Me too, i've used Thule on stock rails. Nice to have options though.
