Extended roof rails.

Hi all, just bought myself a set of genuine extended roof rails, any advice on fitting? Do I need to drill some holes or do they go straight on? If holes need drilling what’s the best way to do it. Thanks in advance.

No need to drill anything, apart from the front plastic trim.
But key point is to 'tap out' the existing threads.
Otherwise you could overtightening any of the bolts before they are fully home and end up snapping them. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
