Hi,
Can anyone give me some advice on what roof rails, mounts etc I need to fit a bike carrier
to the roof of my 2004 vRS.

Thank you.

Try a google search for roofbox company or I think it's roofbox.co.uk

You just need to sift through the menu's to get to your car depending on whether you have an estate or a hatch. I did this for my Superb and now just need to replace the feet of the Thule system for the Octy estate.

I have Atera mountain bike holders which slot into the Aero bars. They are good. Got the whole system all as a package from them for about £200.

On my enquiry from changing from superb to octy estate they said

"You can keep your 761 roof bars, they should be 120cm long.

You need the TU755 clamps. They attach to the roof rails on the new vehicle. They cost £52.95."

I too went with roofbox. They replied very quickly to any queries I had. They also said I could use the same bars (with different feet) for my Octavia and my wifes civic (even though the actual bar specified for the civic was shorter). Got all the bits and they do fit both cars with a 2 minute change of the feet. I too went for Thule bars and Atera racks for the £200 or so deal. Both components are built well and fitted together very easily.
