That's exactly the set-up I want this summer.
Nice thing about it is the towers/crossbars come off easily, leaving only the low profile tracks.
Meaning no wind noise or effect on gas mileage when you don't need it up there.

That looks really good on your truck.
Do you remember approx. how much that set-up ran you raceline?

cal_schmidt here is a thread I started which is related to roof racks and has some good info/links: Hauling a canoe with the Frontier

Thule makes the towers that go in the door jam for the Navara. You just have to trim off 1 little location-nub that fits into a hole in the door jam that the navara has. Or you could just drill the little hole.

The only problem is that you would have to order them from a Thule distributor outside of the US and have them shipped here.

Check the Navara section on here, I know it has been discussed before, and I know some Navara owners on here have them.

Exclamation

NOTICE: please read before starting another roof rack no drilling thread

ROOF RACKS CANNOT BE HELD ON BY 3M TAPE! DRILL YOUR ROOF AND ENJOY YOUR NEW RACK.

also I know there may be one option you dont have to "drill", but thats it and even that you should still drill. sorry had to get that off my chest.

if you don't want to drill into your roof then maybe you can utilize the utili-trac. some custom made crossbars maybe all that you need to fit a yakima rack or something....


or you can get one of these:
