Saw these canopy roof bar brackets on a Hilux with a ARB canopy while I was in CHCH today - I have seen them before on a different vehicle as well so maybe they are made locally? Anyone know who makes these as they look a lot better than any of the brand name options I have seen. A Google image search didn't turn up anything useful.

We have them on most of our work utes - I'll check with our mechanic.
The bars also come with fittings which screw into the channels for ladder racks, spotlights, flashing beacons, ties downs etc...
@Basenjiboy awesome mate :thumbsup:
@Basenjiboy did you have any luck finding anything out?
Hi Shamus
According to our mechanic they were put on when we fitted the utes out last decade.
We have four dozen operational utes, and only a handful of the oldest have these on both ARB and Beaut Ute canopies (like my 2013 Ranger), so they are not provider specific - all the newer ones all have the Thule style adjustable mounts.
Not sure that this helps you?
Thanks for checking anyway mate - appreciate it :thumbsup:
It looks similar to Rhino heavy duty bar but with custom made footing brackets.
Pretty easy to CAD up and get laser cut & folded
Yup that's exactly what it is and that is why I asked -"Identify these ute canopy roof bar brackets" :thumbsup:
As I said I have seen them on more than one vehicle in Canterbury so someone is/was manufacturing these and I am trying to find out who ...
Even easier to just buy them if someone is already making them :thumbsup:Quote:

Sorry misunderstood the post :p.
Bracket look easy enough to make, i might have the cad file if u know someone to cut/fold locally
CNC solutions in Rolleston are pretty affordable to cut & fold. If you give me dimensions I can make a CAD file in a couple of minutes.
But yes easier to just buy off the shelf
