I'd like to get a rack as well. I've tried Givi and two from HD neither one cleared the padded top.

Bungee Buddies
I have the large case on my RT and installed 4 bungee buddies that work great.
I am sure you could carry your chairs on top, my wife will not camp but they are handy for our riding coats when the temp. goes up.

Racks on Both My BMW Trunks
I too like the option of a greater carrying capacity when out of town on multi-day trips. I ordered the GIVI trunk rack ($79) twice - mounted one on the 28 litre BMW trunk, and also on the 49 litre BMW trunk.
Yes, there is a pad on the top of the 49 litre trunk, and the luggage rack (black) makes contact with it, but then, no one ever sat on the top of my trunk, so I wasn't quite sure why a pad was there in the first place!
Ordered them from TwistedThrottle.com
Good luck!

What model number did you use? Can you post the measurements between the posts? I might try the Givi again, one I tried you would have drilled through the pad.

Thanks for posting that picture. It does look like a great fit.
