I've just joined the ranks of Westy Syncro owners, and I've got few
questions.

1) "Wolf Bras"

Protecting the front end of the truck from rocks / bugs is pretty high on my
list.  What brand of "Wolf" bra works best?

2)  Roof racks and bike racks

I'm think that I've figured out how to mount a roof rack on a Westy (looks
like a Yakima bolt on rain gutter, and a long bar Thule / Yakima rack).  Any
advice on do's / don't when drilling holes in my camper top for the fake
rain gutter would be appreciated.  I plan on mounting the rack towards the
back of the pop top for a roof top box & windsurfers etc.

I'd also like to put a bike rack on the nose of my Westy (over a "Wolf"
bra).  What brands of bike carriers have people had good luck with?

3) Cup holders

 This vehicle screams out for a couple of really good cupholders (which I've
seen in catalogs), but now that I really need one, I can't find them!  Does
anyone know where to get a good cup holder that works with the Westy's
dashboard?

Thanks,

William
