T track roof rack bolts
Does anyone know what size the “T” head is that fits into the short tails on a D3 or does anyone have half a dozen they would be willing to part with for a few beer tokens??

I don't have the bolts but I have some treaded plates I made up to mount my roof rack to the rails. You're more than welcome to have them if you want.Discovery 4 GS 2009 Auto Stornoway Grey

I have a couple of sets (8 in total) of the Thule T bolts and fittings for the roof bars.
Will have a look tomorrow.

Just cover the cost of postage, so probably about £3. I'll try to get some pictures so you can see what they're like.Discovery 4 GS 2009 Auto Stornoway Grey

These slide into the rails then use an M8 to clamp to them. Let me know if they're any good to you.Discovery 4 GS 2009 Auto Stornoway Grey

You need approx. 30mm wide t nuts or t bolts for short or long rails.
Guessing, I'd have said 1"/25mm BUT looks like ~30mm is right. Here is one from my Rhino bars. Appears to be not quite square but that may be that it's become dished with use (more so to the eye than the pics suggest)

The legs i use on my rhino tray are RLTP which have brass 25mm hex nuts which aren't wide enough to fit the tracks correctly so i just pushed them out so they grip on one side until i get the right ones, rhino do make nuts that suit which are M5 and 30x25mm.
