Who would like a mk2 roof rack?
« on: July 31, 2013, 07:05:28 am »
I have been looking for more suppliers for my shop to expand what I can sell to help VW people out. I ran across a supplier who looks to have good quality roof racks for a mk2 but I have to buy like 100 or so at once to be able to purchase them. I always have people asking me if i have any when they come up to buy mk2 parts from the shop. So I thought I would ask on here to gauge somemore interest. If you would be interested in a mk2 roof rack in the $75-100 price range just post on here so I can decide if I want to drop a huge chunk of change on them. Or if you have any other ideas on stuff you would like or just can't find post those too and maybe I can look for that too.

Crossbars and mounting feet. They have a basket that works with the crossbars too that that I am waiting on a quote for.

So far I've had about 15 people say "I want one" now hopefully when I get them in they will actually buy them.

Before I say 100% yes I would like to see how they mount and what not. I would get one I think for the 75.00 but not if I have to tear up the rain gutters every time I take them off or put them on. Or if it isn't a huge deal and it is only a small piece......Just show me how easy it is and how long would I have to come up with the cash :D

here are some pics of the one I am looking at





I don't know what the final price is yet so I can't make it in stone yet. I still have to pay for international shipping and importation fees and all of that jazz first.

They might clamp down on the drip rails. They are adjustable with so that wouldn't be an issue.

MK1 AND MK2 racks are interchangeable.
