On the top right of your screen, there is a search bar... Type in "Roof Rack" in it, there have been quite a few threads about this...

So many to choose from that you can buy or you can build your own if you can do it!!! I choose to buy a easy mount system from Yakima. I got the Yakima Basketcase as well (supports 150 lb.). I added the 44 inch faring to add looks and keep it quiet. I really do not notice I have it mounted even at 75-80 mph on the highway. Very nice system from Yakima. I bought the roof rack slightly used on Ebay with the locks for $162 with shipping. This included the rack towers and cross bars and locks. I bought the fairing and Basketcase from ORS brand new for $125 with free shipping.

There was a thread on Pirate about using 2 ATV racks from Harbor Freight, bolting them together and mounting as a roof rack.

The guy put it on his J**p and it looks good. I bought 2 and did it for my BII and it turned out great, 80 dollar roof rack (would have been cheaper but I didnt have any 20% off coupons)

I dont know if we are allowed to post links to other forums, but if theres anyone interested in some pics I can take some later or post the link if its allowed.

A buddy of mine did the same thing a couple of years ago. He bought my Harbor Freight cargo carrier from me and then he bought one at Harbor Freight and welded them both together and put it on his Ford Escape mounting it to his Yakima roof rack and used those Mighty Mounts to attach it. I thought that looked really great!!! I just wish he could do fab work. He would have made me that light bar I have been wanting for so many years.
