@AntonioH Well we can help you out in that department as well! I'm not sure what style you're looking for, but we've got the Ratchet Grab Tie-Down Strap # RRSRG which is designed so the ratcheting mechanism installs onto your crossbars via the T-Slot. We also have the retractable straps like the Erickson # EM34415, but one problem I see with these fancier straps is that they're just heavy and I don't think they will perform well on top of a roof rack.
