Roof straps problem

Postby derbyshire surfer » Sat Dec 29, 2007 9:12 pm

Hi all, I've been using some roof straps for a while now, I travel at least 120miles to nearest break. My problem is when it rains I find the water runs down the straps and into the car and drips onto the seats...and occassionally the 'missus' lol! :x

Is there something reallly obvious to stop this happening, or can you advise on some straps where this doesn't happen?

Cheers!
