ROOF BARS & GLASS SUN ROOFS..!!!

Postby alexjb » Sat Jun 26, 2010 6:18 pm

Hi All.
Im trying to get some reasonably priced roof bars and roof box for my 55 plate 5dr Megane.
We have the large tilt/slide sunroof.
All the bars i have seen advertised so far ( Ebay etc...) state "without glass sunroof"

WHY ?.....

Does it just mean the roof cant be opened OR does it mean i need bars just for glass sunroof models only ?.

Any info would be VERY handy..

Cheers.

Well thats what i thought.... :cool:

Any idea why they state not for sun roof models tho ?.

Saftey issue perhaps ??

Incase any thing gets dropped onto the glass ?

But you recon they'll fit fine tho ?

Cheers.

Yeah its a safety issue, and I've read that the pressure running under some roof boxes with the sunroof open could cause your windows to blow out. Now that would be cool!
