roof bars.

[surfenstein]

im thinking about fitting some short bars on the roof of stein.to take the spare wheel and 33" tyre has anyone done this ?and if so what bars did you use and how much of a job is it to do.

Vince fitted bars from a Pug (405?) estate. They look pretty good.

Someone will have some unwanted SURF bars then you can fabricate something to them no doubt

[stormforce]

you mean to say Mark that with all your skills you need to ask.If you need any bolts snapping then i'm your man.....lol

yea i need to ask after all i am human, i know a lot of you think im some kinda mad freek. but ive seen some surfs on this forum with the spare on the roof,i was planning on some short bars just enough to take the spare ,but i suppose i would be better off fitting full length bars.

Bars from an Escort estate will fit but the bars, if you can find any, from a Frontera LWB or Sport are ideal. I think the LWB bars are shorter than the Sport, strange but true (I think)

Audis have silver rails.

When i carried 2 spares,i put one in the boot and one on the roof. Used the standard roof bars with a basket thingy i got for 6 beers. It worked for me but aerodynamics not so good. Mind you, dont thing aerodynimics and Surfs go together anyway!!

Spare might look better at the back though i suppose
