M35 Roof Racks

[Grungle]

So i've been looking around for some roof racks for my M35 ARX, without much luck. had a search in the forum...no love either.

Has anyone fitted roof racks to their M35? if so - where, how and how much?

I have tried ARB and Roof Rack City (in adelaide) but neither are very willing to help out if it's not in their magic book of standard products.

Only looking to carry a couple of surfboards/snowboards, so no massive loads or anything.

Do roof racks from any other model fit the M35?

I got my racks from Roof Rack City in Artarmon (sydney). They are the importer of Thule into Australia so they will be able to advise you of the best model and where to get it from in SA.

If you have no luck with them send me a PM and I will find the part number for the racks.

Cheers

OMG... I would have sworn that I had posted the part number some where... What I can find are pictures of the part that mounts on the roof and the foot on the bar locks onto it. I used the thule Aero bar but you can use the square bar if you prefer.

Here are the pics. I will call them tomorrow and see if I can get the part number from them.

Hi Guys

I called Thule today and tried to clarify what was available for the M35. The answers are:

* The fit kit I have is no longer available so they have a new solution.

The solution is.

Fit Kit = TK3034

Foot kit = RT753

Aero bar 135cm

Total kit cost is $360 (plus postage if you are interstate)

There is a small amount of modification required to the fit kit to make it fir the M35.

If you are interested in getting this roof rack kit you can phone, Dan @ Roof Rack World on 02 9439 2677.

He knows what our cars are and can set up a set for you and send it out to the guys who are interstate.

This is their site if you want to look at it. http://www.roofrackworld.com.au/

Cheers

Are they still advertised on Yahoo Auctions by any chance? Not sure if they display the kit number, but I can recall seeing them up to a couple of months ago.

I got Thules but also the OEM's thanks to a link posted on here to a trademe auction. Got these for $300 NZ so were a bargain. Cost the seller 1100 new.

I have been searching for racks and found a website in Japanese that has a kit specifically for the NM35, I just cant find anyone that sells the products in Australia. They are RV INNO kit number 271.

The bars are your typical square look.

I have just made an enquiry to an Australian company called RAK, they have telescopic, universal fit racks. Has anyone tried these? The bars on it are a squashed look for aerodynamics and are anodised aluminium from memory. The Kit was $298.

I will keep you posted on fitment.
