Question for you... Do the base OEM bars have a slotted groove in them to accept accessories like for example, the barracuda bike racks ( i have 2 of them from my 2003 VW Jetta). The barracudas have a square piece that slides into a channel on the base carrier bars. Is this the same setup on the Audi OEM Votex bars?

Any close up pictures of the bars where things connect with them?

I don't have any pics without the bag (wife already thinks I'm nuts.) Here's a link to a picture on the Audi web site. That's pretty much what they look like. There are no special hook-ups or anything on the bars themselves.
