Try these Graeme

http://www.autow.co.uk/roof_racks/price_list.aspx

They don't show RF1 stepwagon systems but these guys are excellent - just give them a call.

Also here is a photo of our roof system - 3 screw holes so I guess the same mount system will work for you.

The products we used were:

Thule TRK4717 - Rapid Tracker Fixing Kit
Thule TRK4700 - Rapid Tracker foot pack.
Thule TRK762 - Standard roof bars
Halfords box which we bought some years ago.

Easy to fit :)

Perfect solution and well pleased with the result. :D

Hope this helps .... cheers Lewis.

Most definately, I realy appreciate that, I will start looking now. And yes, it is the same fitting as mine.

Thank you very much, you have saved me alot of money having to import.

Graeme - Glad to be of help. The supplier I suggested is only just over an hour away from you so a visit might be worthwhile. However, their prices include delivery so if you are confident of the solution, you can order over the phone. You might mention that you were put in touch with them by their August Stepwagon customer! (they were very curious about stepwagons but I was in my peugeot estate when I collected the parts)

Cheers ... Lewis :D

The packs you describe are the same as for the CR-V 2003 - mine.
I found that the screw holes were not identical unless you only use the middle one - that's why I suggested drilling others to match the outer fixings.
The difference is that the Thule kits provided 'boots' which covered up the space between the metal fittings and the roof trims, but they don't fit the Steppy.
I got extra covers and will be carving them to suit - carefully, because they are £12.95 each!
