Default roof rack with softop?

I really want a roofrack / lightbar combo but I want to still be able to use the soft top. Is there any roof rack that allows you to lower the soft top still and raise it back in place? I don't know how it would be possible but it would be sweet.

FYI: I can put my sot top down and up without tilting my Kargo Master rack back. It is a tight squeeze over the back seat but it is doable. I have an '09 2-door w/ the sunrider option. Don't think you'd be able to use just the sunrider though w/o tilting the rack back.
