To fit the roof box you would need these..

They slide along the channel in each roof bar and when bolted up through holes in the bottom of the roof box secure the box.

Sorry can't help about sourcing these bolts.

Mine came with a Rover/Thule bike rack but I know the same bolts fit the Rover/Thule roof box.

I suppose a good diy person could Mig weld some square plates to a M8 or M10 bolt

My roof box has very wide U bolts so have never had a problem attaching to any roof bars including the OEM ones. Haven't seen the T bolts before but they look like a very neat solution.

Those are for hooking rope, bunji cord ect., I use them all the time but always add a loop of bunji around the main bar as I am not sure of the strength they are rated for.
