Hi Vince,

I have photo on my phone, so will transfer it to the pc tonight. But it’s the roof rail attachment that your modified roof bars bolts to, I have one missing so won't be able to fit your bars :-(

As long as you have the roof channels you'll be able to fit the bars.

I've modified my original attachment method.

Oh, OK great! That saves me looking for them!

Look forward to receiving your bars..

All the best,

Tony.

[BUSHWHACKER]

Have you received them yet?

[highgun]

Yes thanks Vince, very strong bars! fit great...

Marvelous!
Just checking, did you fit the threaded attachment in the channels with the spring facing down?
Only asking as I reversed them when I packaged the bars.

The bars can then be removed leaving the attachments in the channels. The springs will prevent them from vibrating out. Mine have been in there for the past eight months.

Mmmm, Fitted them as I got them, I will turn them round at some point

All the best,

Tony.

Yes, sort of.
Sorry Ross, meant to tell you they're being collected by TNT in the morning for delivery on Wednesday.
Had to order more plastic caps for the ends of the tubes.

Today???
They should have been delivered yesterday, I paid for next day delivery!


Anyhoo, glad you like them.
The threaded part fits into the channel like this....


Just push down and turn to 'lock' them in position. They can stay in place if/when you want to remove the bars, they don't fall out.

p.s. I'll send you some rubber grommets to cover the holes once you've fitted the bars, to keep the rain out. I noticed them still on the bench after I had wrapped them up ready to send.

Emmm, I never got any rubber grommets with mine Have you got any more?

Tony.
