Roof bars and roof box

[Pchende]

Hi all, looking at getting some roof bars and a roof box (audi genuine ones) does anyone have either and want to share their experience with them quality/issue wise. 

Thanks in advance

I purchased my roofbars on eBay from an Audi dealer (can’t remember which one now) which were a little bit cheaper than the list price. They are good quality. The front one is easy to fit as there are locating holes in the door openings. The rear one a little fiddly as I have the 3 door so you have to prise back the rubber then line up the feet with an arrow on the window. Once fitted the bars are strong enough for my needs. I don’t have any experience of fitting a roof box, I’m afraid.

Thanks for the reply. I went with audi ones in the end. Mainly as i bought the bars and box from them and they did my a deal which worked out cheaper than buying thurle ones. 

Quite happy with quality of the them and the box looks great on the car.
