Avant roof rack ideas?

Post by AudiSport4000 »

I have the factory rack but am looking for cross bars and bike attachments for the 200. Anyone here have BTDT? Seems to be a difficult thing to find.

Just came across this pic. Looks to be pretty standard Thule equipment.

This is what I have on my S6, they have a pad that rests on the car's roof rack and a strap that goes under it and you just tighten down the strap. Works fine.

Mike, if you can snag a set of the older 415 mounts, that might work better. They use a "V" shaped channel to hold the rail.
