Hi All
Just fitted Audi brand roof racks to my B8 avant, which are a bit like the wide Thule Aero bars with the T bar slot system
They have to fit into designated positions along roof as they have the pins that fit into mating holes in the Audi flush roof bars
This means I try and put my Thule roof box on (which has the older C shape clamps that slide up from beneath) the holes don’t line up..... ridiculous
So I now have to drill extra holes in my roof box at the one end?
The T bar system Adapters won’t help as that still means drilling extra holes
It looks like my Thule roof box is so old that is was only ever meant for narrow square section roof racks.... So doesn’t have enough adjustability (hole increments) for wider modern aero section roof racks
obviously if I could mount one of the Audi roof racks 1cm further back I’d be happy!!
Can I remove the pins?
