[Wanted] Full length roof bars

As title suggests, I am after a pair of genuine (i think) full length roof bars in black or grey if anyone has some or a recommendation on where to get them.

Thanks!

A few of us have used the full length rails from Powerful UK - they seem to be quite good. Come with all the right parts (seals/bolts), which some of the chinese copies dont.

They do Black and Silver

I had a pair of eBay long roof rails on my D3. They looked OEM and really were great quality. I had to tweak them a little when fitting them as they needed a little persuasion but I got the job done, you really couldn't tell they were after market.
Cost about 5 times less than genuine so you decide. Thumbs Up

Two very helpful responses - thanks both! Will leave this as I found just in case but looks like after market is the sensible option.

You'll need to use a chaser bolt on the unused forward fixture before bolting down.
If you don't you risk snapping a bolt as you tighten it up.

As per Narpy... IIRC I paid low money , ~Ā£115, and the rails themselves are fine. Plastic end bits are not as good as genuine, but you have to look VERY closely to know that.

Still havenā€™t made my mind up on these... do you all use genuine roof bars or do you have to use bars that fit/work with your chosen rails?

Iā€™m after another set of these now Iā€™ve switched to a different D4. Genuine full length in black ideally.

I bought some from eBay that came with aero cross bars as well as the full length rails.
At the time I couldnā€™t find genuine for under 600 quidā€¦.

Took a real gamble as they were only 180 all in.

Apart from the wise words of ronp above, (use a chaser bolt as the threads are a pig under the bungs) they are really easy to fit.

I initially bought them as an aesthetic really (and the occasional long ladder) but have since been roof tenting on them (static 300kg load) with no issues.

I really donā€™t see how the oem bars are worth the money unless you find some on here cheaply.

Good luck Very Happy
 A mod a week until I have nothing to improve or add.

Thanks. Still looking but would rather hold out and wait for black ones to show up.
