Genuine Roof Bars

[Oldbrook]

Hi I have a set of genuine roof cross bars for my ML and the rubber strips are missing. Who makes the merc roof bars or is this a dealer only job. Thanks Dave

Have you any pictures of them?

Quite likely your bars are made by Thule.

Hi Will, pics added. Dave

They look like Thule bars to me.

You can definitely buy Thule rubber strips separately (have a look on eBay) but maybe also check how much the dealer wants if they sell spare parts.

If there’s a Halfords nearby you could pop by to compare as I know they sell Thule roofbars, otherwise I can send you a small offcut of the Thule rubber strips if you want to check fitment?

Thanks Will, I will pop down to halfords and have a look or see if I can find another thule retailer nearby. Dave
