I'm interested in buying the roof rack bars for my avant but don't want to pay the $200 my dealer wants for them. Are there any other sources??

Thanks!

Check the classifieds on A4.org.. I have seen people selling Audi roofracks that are new or almost new for around $100- $120. the typical going rate.

I looked at the Thule 751 kit for my 99 A6A at the local REI. We took one of the bars out to the car, and it looks like the feet on this kit would grab the stock fore-and-aft roof rails great. They wanted $175, and I think I'm going to go get them, as I have some Thule bike carrier stuff that would bolt right on.

My experience in looking at pricing for roof racks is that the stuff isn't cheap, nor do you want it to be.

i just purchashed feet for my Thule to put on my Avant A6 rails for $100. i called Thule and they quoted me the same price.

In somewhat the same vein, since we already have Thule racks and just need the feet (rei quoted $180; haven't bought them yet), I have a question about the fairing. We have the tilt-up/slide back sunroof and I just don't see how the fairing is going to fit. Anyone have experience with this? TIA.<p>rj
