Good morning
Up for sale as will be selling the disco 3 for a 4, rax roof rack. Rear ladder can’t remember the make of ladder, 2 still in the box mounting brackets for spot lights or a light bar. Hardly used mounted a roof box on it once, that’s about it, has the eyelets ets, Good condition, still fitted to the disco. Not the best photos as weather hasn’t been the best.

Does that fit in the roof channels?
Would probably be interested in a few weeks if you still have it, I would be interested now but the pesky Welsh government has banned us all from leaving our counties.....
If you still have it when I'm allowed to leave I'll give you shout

Morning I believe so the brackets bolt straight to roof, this what you want to know?, no roof rails attached, tough times at the moment, don’t get out much.

Not much logic to it really, I have 60 plus drivers at work running all over the country without restriction but I can't go to B&Q 10 miles away because its in the next county.
Mine has roof rails, but I'm fairly sure I can remove them

Surely you can adapt the rack to attach to the rails? A set of thule feet would probably do the job..

It is indeed. Suppose there has to be some line drawn somewhere for it all but I'm much of the opinion that Sweden has probably has the most sensible approach

May well do. Thanks for the idea!
Not to fussed whether I keep or lose the roof rails tbh. Either way is fine
If they haven't sold by the time the county borders are unsealed then I'll look to buy

I fitted it with what ever came with the kit, bolts and brackets just removed and cut gutter trims.
