Title: roof racks universal?
Post by: JSMC on June 18, 2008, 03:54:00 pm

i have someone i know who has a roof rack and are willing to sell it to me. I was just wondering if these things are universal fit.  don't fancy driving all the way to his to find out it doesn't fit. But on the same hand if it does fit i am saving about 80 quid as he hasn't used it.

he said it was for a vivaro or a vito but he can't remember.

No, you need a roof rack which will fit your particular type of vehicle.

My last roof rack (I can't remember the make), had ends you could swap if you purchased a different vehicle, but it wouldn't fit my current vehicle (no ends available), so I had to buy a new one at around £100.

You'd be extremely lucky to buy a 'random' roof rack and by sheer chance it fitted your vehicle.
