Paddy Hopkirk roofrack quick fit bars warning

If your new panda has roofrails you might be tempted to buy a Paddy Hopkirk rapid fit lateral bar to give you a roofrack. Don't. Their guide for what fits is woefully wrong and 4 inches short. I took mine back and they fitted a Halfords bar to it to get one that fits. All their stores will have a wrong part number for the Paddy Hopkirk.

Instead, if you are in Halfords or something and looking to go cheaper than the rip off Fiat Brio catalogue prices then stick to their make and assemble it from the lateral bar and fittings.

The bars in question are the 404U, the 404UL fit, but are too long.

Fiat Panda 5dr Hatch RR 04- 404U N/A

WRONG!!!
