I have bought a pair of Rola roof racks on eBay however they are in Cranbourne and are pick up only.

Is anyone in or near Cranbourne able to help me out by picking them up and posting them to Brisbane for me? I'm happy to toss in a few extra bucks for your troubles!

Thanks

How big is the roll bar?

Im guessing Australia post wouldnt take either the rolla racks or the roll bar. They would be too big.

Thanks Leroy but I'll need to have this organised within about a week or tow at the most. I've dicovered that Australia Post won't take items longer than 105cm according to their website so I might have 2 problems - finding a kind soul to pick up the roof racks for me and help them on their way as well as a reasonable way to have these freighted (without the price of my first born).

Price was far too cheap to pass up so I took the risk and bought them. Just hope someone can help me out. There's a few beers at least in it for someone! Cheers

Guys PM me.... I'm in Cranbourne North. If these items will fit in a BA XR6 sedan, and I'm talking on the back seat cause the boot is always full with work stuff, I can get them to FTG Auto Salvage.
Hey....did the listing on ebay have a pic. Send me the link so we can see the size of what needs to be picked up

We have offers, and the guy I bought the bar off is going to deliver it to FTG on sat morn, may be able to get him, or the good fellows here to get them there. Even wrap them both as one, and split the freight?????

Thanks everyone for your help with this one, especially xr8 dismantler. I'm getting some delay from the seller (go figure) so am happy for 347stroker to move forward and I'll organise as best I can, when I can. I hope to be able to move forward very soon but in the meantime please don't let me hold you up 347stroker.
