Expidition Roof Rack - Removal
Hi,
Is it straight forward to remove the Expidition Roof Rack?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm considering getting a new D3 (in 2 1/2 weeks) or a D4 (in 2 1/2 months) and will want to retain having a Roof Rack.
Thanks,

Its been a while but yes the hardest bit is lifting it off but one person each side and walk backwards ie not over the bonnet

Hi buddy Yep the hardest bit is the lifting.
I suspect if you have not taken your rack off since you got it, your nuts might be seized, so maybe an investment in a suitable drill and screw extractor for the front fixings might be a good idea.
I had a good crawl around a D4 today, and the interior is very nice, but nowhere to put your phone.
