Hi smart folks!

I've got a 2009 Tucson. It comes with the side rails, but I'd like to
know what I can put on the roof without buying the Hyundai cross rails
and other accessories, which seem far too expensive. Are there any
aftermarket things that work?

If this is a stupid question, sorry. I know nothing about roof rails,
having always owned a sports car in the past.

I have an Entourage, and I simply used square lashings to tie on a couple of
lengths of 2x4 wooden cross bars. I carried a small boat on the roof for six
months, and the lashings are still tight.
