Deluxe Snowboard/Ski rack question
so I got a little trigger happy on the buy it now option on ebay and bought the ski/snowboard rack attachment for my basic carrier thinking that by buying the MB rack, it would automatically slide like a drawer for ease of access...oh how I was wrong...so you can imagine the look on my face when I realized this was a fixed rack and the one I actually wanted was the deluxe...
I did see slots cut out on the fixed rack that appears to be there so that it connects to the sliding rails on the deluxe rack....so my question is:
Do they offer just the sliding mechanism...attach the fixed rack to the slides and then the slides to the basic carrier?...just incase you would like to upgrade later? or am I stuck with this fixed one?
I got a good deal on these fixed ones anyway...and they were brand new in the box for half the cost of the deluxe, but i'm just still a little disappointed knowing that i could have had the sliding ones if I was a bit more careful when ordering.

so i went to the dealer and they dont even have a clue what im talking about...it was amazing...like talking to a freaking wall...they just dont think outside the box...the guy behind the counter at the dealer even suggested getting an aftermarket part...can you belive it...damn!!! now thats service with a "I dont give a ****" face.
