Anyone have instructions or just an explanation on how to remove the factory roof rails?
Cheers.
Cheers.
Will you be selling these please?
No sorry, I just wanted them off so I can change the colour of my roof with the rails out of the way.
Change the colour of your roof.....I was thinking the same, matt black vinyl......
You've got it. £90 it's costing.
I've got some new mirror caps too! £21 off ebay
I'm going for the Antartica look
Nice one! Think they look sweet. I also like the matt purple wing mirror covers and purple hub caps that Fiat Accessories have for sale. My wife agrees they would look good with our blue car...
Look at us poncing around with our Pandas eh? You can tell we used to have 500s!

Yes, vinyl , I'll remove the roof rails to make it a little easier for them.
Unsure how they'll work around the aerial though?

Really! 90 quid....is that from your local vehicle graphics company? I was wondering who I should go to. I am thinking of having a webasto folding sunroof too, this will be black of course so will tie in nicely.
Although I emailed 2 of their agents for info and prices over a week ago and have not heard from either - not promising!
I received the following when I enquired about Webasto roof for my 4x4 TA
" thanks for the email. the hollandia 400 does fit in your panada. i am waiting for webasto to give me a fitting time on your exact car. a rough guide is
hollandia 400 parts only £730 inc vat and postage , plus fitting which would be around 280 plus vat (if its a normal fit). if you would like to go ahead i can look into exact pricing for you. thanks stuart 01752 893368"
Another agent has quoted me significantly less but, being in Italy at the moment, I can't come up with the figure.
I got quite interested but the figures show that the actual opening is a lot shorter than the hole in the roof, so I'm not sure now. A good deal of the work is to compensate for removing the brace across the middle of the roof apparently.
You may have to lower the headlining to remove the antenna base.
Mine was supposed to go in Friday, but is postponed till next week
They should know better than remove any bracing / piece of metal from a 4x4 vehicle.
This car does not have a separate ladder frame, so all bracing matters and might be just enough as it is.
My guess is they just can't resist making a few quid and they wouldn't be the ones driving the vehicle anyway.
Or maybe they think the guys at Fiat are just stupid for not offering this option for the 4x4.
Just my 2c.
