A vehicle structure with an upper framework that consists of a driver side frame element, a passenger side frame element and possible lateral crossbars. An open area is interposed between the driver side frame element and the passenger side frame element. The vehicle has a roof system to selectively cover and expose the open area. When the roof system is closed, a gap space exists between the open area and the interior of the roof system. Removable mounts are bolted to the upper framework. At least two cargo bars are provided that attach to the mounts. The cargo bars extend across the open area and are supported by the mounts in the gap space under the roof system. In this manner, the roof system can be selectively opened and closed over the cargo bars.
