looks good. how are you connecting those lights up on the rear tie down rails? Some cables look like they are on the other side to the ext roof DTP sockets and also going upwards?
tks in advance.

The lights are connected via the DTP connections on the side where they are placed. The cable goes along the top and then connected to the lighting at the back. The cable then runs behind the pillar of the roof rack to the DTP connector so that you do not see the cable.
excellent - thank you vm..
Which working light have you chosen?
Wow, that looks great. Is it 3D printed?
Very well done and superb idea! - That said, I see even more orange in the cupholder place, what that might look like?
Might try that. I have mine in the harness on the wheel but they make the rear vision even worse and I just noticed also obscure the high level brake light
I was thinking I might relocate them to the wheel for the Simpson, after I’ve aired down etc (deflation kit is allocated to the wheel cubby). Will also add a cable lock and back-up ratchet strap around the whole box and dice. It’s pleasingly neat from side on and makes little difference to rear vision. It is a bit of a reach to release the door however.
Ah yes, I hadn’t thought of that. I have one of these locks on mine. Wouldn’t stop a determined or well equipped thief but good enough to stop a casual thief.
Yes, that also looks good for roof-mounted jerrys. As we’ll clearly have driven across Oz before interior/exterior fitout I’m doing my best to recycle/reuse. For the Americas I’m hoping to side-mount a couple of jerries (presently x4 in the rear loadspace) and have the Maxtrax on the roof.
FWIW: Through the local Ineos Agent/dealer, I purchased 2 sets of the "Ineos" RhinoRack roof bars. About half the price of the roof rack and half the weight (4 x 7kg = 28kg all up). The bars are the RhinoRack "Pioneer" bars- "industrial" in size and strength with slots on all four surfaces allowing multiple fixtures to be installed. By changing the number of bars on the roof to suit the "mission" and the distance between them, all sorts of different arrangements are possible.. e.g. different size baskets (or no basket) etc.
I was admiring @AnD3rew ’s setup with the bars, which looks practical. On the last expedition we were regularly chucking stuff on the roof platform but the primary reason is the desire for a second spare. Not that I’ve been able to acquire one as yet…
A basket and appropriately placed bar distances could solve that... I'm impressed with the idea of a chucking a 40kg spare wheel on the roof!
! I think your choice of the dark grey/black colour for the Maxtrax is spot on. I also have a Scottish White (Trialmaster) and bought some the other day -I absent-mindedly came home with the orange ones! I might stow them in an Aldi canvas bag! 
Have you considered sharing the stl file for the tray?
I shared a second set with another owner so we each now have 3. I haven’t had a chance to properly play with spacing yet, but I believe I could get a jerry can holder on the back 2 as well as a second spare. I also have one of these which I haven’t tried on this car yet, but had on my previous car.
