If you put any weight to speak of on the roof of a sierra it WILL crack the a pillars.
Coilers may be better in this regard with the smooth cowl, but I don't think I'd do it.

I am not sure on the prices, I had the whole lot supplied & fitted for free. I think REPCO have been advertising the baskets for sale in one of their cattledogs.
