| Extended roof rails - anyone tried these? |
|
https://www.lrparts.net/vplar0074-extended...and-4.html
Aftermarket £175 Genuine LR £350
Has anyone on here tried these (or any other) aftermarket extended rails?
I read that some of the aftermarket ones don't accept the standard LR roof bars.
Any experience on here?
Cheers

Not from that specific company, but I purchased a similar set at a slightly lower price from EBAY and sent them straight back when they arrived because they looked awful.

Yep - used aftermarket ones on the D4. The endcap plastic quality isnt as good as genuine, but you cant really see that once they are up on the roof. Worked fine with genuine LR cross bars.

I just installed Powerfuluk ones and they work fine for me. Price is even lower than that.

Hi @roverlike do you use genuine LR roofbars with the PowerfulUK rails? Do they fit OK?
According to this link you have to use their own roof bars with them?

No, I use Powerfuluk roof bars. Point is whole assembly is costing a lot less and quality is good from my point of view.
