Sunroof with a roof rack?

Post by Digital »

Apologies if this is a really dumb question ( :dunce: ), but would there be any issues using a set of roof bars if you have the panoramic sunroof? My next car needs to be capable of carrying a bike or two, but I quite fancy the option of the sunroof :)

The picture of the Scirocco in the VW literature with the roof bars is fitted over the pano roof.

I've just got some bars for my non-pano roof Scirocco, but not fitted them yet.

Edit:- Had a look around, and you can see the picture here...

Hi Just got my scirocco with the Pan roof, was wondering how you got on with your roof bars, I've just had a quote from a dealer for £256.50 as i spent quite sometime trying find out if after markets fit with the pan roof. The feedback I'm getting is 'no' :(

Thule Do a set for the Scirocco. Not got any though so can't give you any feedback on what they are like.

No question - you can get VW bars and roof rack; in the accessories brochure page 15
