Hi guys,

I brought some roof bars of eBay for my 3 door but when I went to fit it I didn't have any mounting points for the front bits in the roof when you take the little caps off.

Where can I get some from?

Or can I make some?

Thanks.
 
I think so, at the moment there's 2 bolts. But I assume there's a piece that's fits to this and then the roof bar bolts to the piece. Don't know what it looks like.
 
They may argue that they didn't list "fittings" or "fixings" but they're only roofbars if all the bits are there. Without them, they're just metal tubes and should be valued accordingly.
 
..... or there may be a plan "b".

I won an auction for an identical set of bars that states "all fixings, seals etc" last night. When it turns up (probably Friday next week) I'll take some measurements. It may be possible to make up a replacement using some box section and a rivnut/captive nut.
 
I'll open a dispute.
Bit if you could get me the measurements and I'll bodge something.
Cheers dude

Edit: just checked I ordered them a while ago and I'm past my 90 days now :-/
 
I'll upload some photos in a moment to give this some context, but this is how it measured up.
