HELP PLEASE!!! I've managed to buy from eBay some Halfords roof bars for my 2003 Citroen Xsara Picasso but they didn't come with any instructions and I can't work out how to fit them. Does anyone please have any instructions they could send me, either by post or if you can scan and email them that would be good. Or if there's anyone local to Shrewsbury I can collect even! Many thanks.

Or, you could pop into Halfords and ask their advice.
So long as you don't actually get them to fit them for you the advice will be free.

Did you get all the bits you actually need?

Hi,

Try looking for instructions on youtube or search for them on net you might get lucky otherwise talk to someone u know that is technically minded they will probably work it out without instructions.

Best of luck.

I bought Halfords roof bars years ago. Could not work out how they went on.and that was with the instructions! Went back to the shop and spoke nicely to someone who fitted them for me (before they charged for this service). When I scrapped the car I couldn't work out how to take them off!

So good luck with that

I guess I'll have to try Halfords eventually if nobody on here is able to help. I'm just suspicious that they'll try to not give too much info away unless I pay their fitting charge.
I've already tried looking on YouTube and the rest of the net, but nothing useful relates specifically to Halfords bars.
Thanks for the inspirational words of encouragement Dubstepper! Love it!

If you go into Halfords and tell them you've got the bars and don't have instructions then they will either give you a copy of the instructions or talk you through it. Just tell them you dont want to pay for fitting just need advice on how to do it yourself. They should help
Think it's about £18 if they fit them for you

They can't be that difficult, what do you have in the box? Feet with bolts or feet with metal to clip to the car?
