5g roof bars

Post by A1ex » Tue Mar 27, 2012 1:33 pm

Hey folks,

I'm trying to find some roof bars for the lude, but not having much luck. Called a couple roof bar companies and went down to halfords and had a look round but no one can do anything for the 5th gen lude :shock:

I wanted some channel mount ones rather than the ones which hook under the roof frame, anyone know what I can use?

I think Thule ones use the channels don't they? There used to be a guy here that had them but I can't find his thread.

Just had a look, the 754 feet on the roofbox size are the gutterless ones which hook around the door :(
