Best place to buy roof rails???
Roof bars and rails ... I have a GS so need both parts (not incl the box!)
... where is the best place to purchase these? I wanted black as the car is Stornoway.
My plan was to get genuine parts for the rails/bars then source a box from somewhere else, Thule possibly?
Any recommendations please?
Thanks Paramedic, Father, Dog lover and Husband ... in no particular order!

I just bought both the long rails and the crossbars from "TLO". They work really well, but you need to follow the instuctions closely to get them fitted. It is also very high if you're putting roofboxes, bikes etc on top of your disco.
If you want TLO's contact details, send me a private message and I'll get straight back to you.
