MB Roof Bars

[nigel cross]

I have a set of original aerodynamic roof bars for my W203.
The question is what is the correct fixing for a roof box?
There would appear to be a upside down T section that is 22mm wide at the bottom are there special fixings and if so any idea of part numbers or what they are called.

Searched past forums and it does appear.
Went down to Halfords to look at the Thule accessories, and they do the sait T shapped bolts. Hooray.
Came home and quess what, strange thread that I cant find a nut for .
Phone my local staeler and explained what I was after , those parts are only available when you buy the roof box etc from MB, as they are part of the fixing kit.
'You should have bought a MB roofbox Sir' ***@*** thanks for nothing.

Local industrial estate and find a nut and bolt supplier or a bearing factor someone will do the nut you require.
