Hi chaps,

Bought myself a used Sportswagon (2010) my first Saab- it's great.

Just want to improve it where possible and utilise it for family stuff- it has the gaps in the roof for the rails (I assume feet) but searching on the web often the roof rails for sale are for Saab's with existing rails with a gap to the car.

Has anyone else had to buy feet/rails, if so what did they get?

Thanks in advance.

Ah okay thank you. Think I was looking in the wrong places!
I assume I could buy the separate parts listed the feet and fitting kit on eBay.

Thought I would quickly revive this... My box does not fit with the new rails bought from the above link... The gap is too large...

Did you buy a new box too? Assuming it can be any brand..

I have Thule roof bars and my box didn't fit. Gap was over 85cm between bars- normal is apparently 75-85. So they say...

Anyway just drilled new holes into the box so it fits now.
