removing tourer roof rails...

an interesting theoretical exercise. An option might be to strip my car of needless clutter and save some pounds. and gain some £s.

What bits would I be missing if I de-fitted my tourer rails - i.e so it looked as per standard? Would I need some strips from a car without rails?

I have a buyer for your rails Jon!
And the gaping holes left would be filled up for you with all the bits from my friend's railess roof

Let me know

Ha ha!
Not sure if its a Sunday night mad aberration, but will bear it in mind...! They do probably create drag. Does he want some roof bars and a box too?

Good 'How to' - and what ever happened to Rob Bell?
