Hi folks,
Relatively new on here, I took delivery of my brand new Vito W447 sport 116 long yesterday. It came without roof bars. I want to fit some. Unfortunately, its gone straight back into the workshop to investigate gear selection issues, so I have not been able to look on the roof to determine if they are a straight bolt on like my Caddy.
I've done a few searches on here and the net. I can't find anything definitive to tell me if I need to drop the roof lining?
Also, I am baulking at £300+VAT for the OEM bars verses circa £80-£100 for aftermarket roof bars. They will only be for cosmetic use, but I don't want anything flimsy or badly fitting. Also, if the roof lining does have to come down, I don't want anything that will corrode in a couple of years which may result in their removal and the having to drop the lining again!
