Have been scouring the websites for these things to find the best deal. So far www.skidrive.co.uk are the cheapest at £100 for all the bits with aerobars and thats with delivery . Does anyone know of a cheaper place or other brands of bars that will do the job, any help would be greatly appreciated

Eggobako , the car is a 1997 BMW three series coupe so I expect the originals will be a rip off. Cannot believe how much roofbars in general cost when you look at what they consist of and as for the price of topboxes - moaning git arent I haha

August will soon be here and time for camping in the new tent , yippeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!
