There are a few different brands that do them. Thule for one (I have one). It's pretty much universal, but it's the clamps to the car that make it specific to Preludes.

You'll probably want the short roof extension bars, which I think is 477 in the thule line up. As nafe says, it's the foot kit that makes it specific, the rest is just bars. In fact I'd bet that thule do something suitable in their present day kit, as it's really not that unusual a design.

EDIT: After checking, I've changed the number. I have:

Thule
950 (feet)
477 Short roof extension
