In the various YouTube videos I've seen for the DIY "Road Showers", they typically use block foam on the cross bars. They cut out a section so that it wraps around the cross bar. Then, they cut out a "cradle" for the PVC. Then, they ratchet strap the thing down.
I guess one could also do this:
1.) Cut a 1" thick slice of PVC endcap
2.) Permanently mount a bolt that goes thru the "closed" end of the cap and thru a corresponding hole in the crossbar
3.) Dremel out a channel in the "open" side of the endcap for the shower to rest in
4.) PVC glue the shower onto the mounting plate/foot
5.) Use butterfly bolt and lock washer to tighten from underneath
Hope that makes sense. You'd have portability and more security
I guess one could cut a slit in each side of the plate/foot and run a ratchet strap thru it and over the shower for added security.
Please excuse my rudimentary Microsoft Paint skills. Hopefully this sheds light on my above description

This is a good idea as well! If I had access to a good shop with CNC capabilities, there'd be no stopping me...these vehicles are like a sandbox.
Goodies arrived from Toyota, PFran LEDs, and LCP!
