Extended roof rail bolt size
Just got the new extended roof rail for my D3
The new rail comes with bolts that are about 6mm wide
But the fixture on the car is wider at about 10mm
So the bolts are too small
If I used the old bolts, I’d have to drill the rail and the bolt heads would obstruct the rack by preventing them being able to slide.
Has anyone had this issue? Should I get an adapter or something?

the bolts or beter screws you did get with the rails are correct..
in your roof should be prefixed "adapters" , on my D3 they were prefixed and under the paintwork, sealed with plastic covers...
but you can order them from LR..
