Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Thule Roof Rack length

    Hi All,

    I'm looking for a roof rack and have come across some second hand Thule bars for cheap, but they are 110cm length.
    Thule WingBar Evo | Thule | Australia

    The Thule website lists the bar length needed as 127cm, however I am wondering if the 110cm bar can be mounted but without the overhang you usually get with the Thru Bar design. I've measured the widest point between the 'channels' on the Golf (hatch) and it is just shy of 110cm.

    Hoping someone who has a similar set up will be able to comment if it's feasible. I'll be sourcing the required mounting kit separately.

    Cheers!
Working...
