Octy II Combi Roof Bars & Clamps?

Just about to get an Ambient and will be wanting some cross bars and clamps for the roof rails, like the look of the Thule Aero bars, I think the code is 775 & 861 for the bars and feet, can anybody confirm this and/or recommend them?

Looks like its the same set up for an A4 avant and there's a set on fleabay atm, so I might have a punt at those

Why don't you buy the Skoda ones? I've got a set for my Octavia 4x4 estate and they are excellent, with a solid rubber top that prevents things slipping.Brian

I have the Thule set you mention OSB.... Got them from one of the mailorder firms I found when searching this forum..

Easy to fit, good price (think about £80 all in) - highly recommended. I think the Skoda set are more expensive but never had a problem with Thule gear...

Just a quickie - I believe Thule 415 feet will also fit but can anybody confirm this?
