roof rack

Hey. Recently purchased my lovely T6 and I’m selling the expedition steel full bucket roof rack. 6 rung ladder and a work light that’s attached to the front of the rack. All fixtures and fittings included. Here’s the link to my eBay which has all the spec...

Hi, I have recently bought a SWB T6 which came with roof rails. I'm looking at getting cross bars AND a roller for loading a canoe(s). I'm struggling to locate any rollers which are compatible with the bars which fit on the rails. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Basically i cant see that Rhino do a roof rack specifically to suit a T6.1 SWB, Tailgate WITH a spoiler?? Tell me if im wrong. Also, after a bit of measuring id suspect that the front of the roof rack would catch the sharks fin if id have mounted the rack using Rhino feet and the 8 fixing...

Just wondering how hard it is to get a nearly 4m 30kg kayak on the roof (I'm 5"9" if that matters). Should I be looking at a proper kayak loader (kiratek etc) when I get my new 2 seater kayak? Any chance someone not far from York has a tandem kayak they transport on the top of the van with...

Hi all i`ve got two roof racks going , well used but solid ,looking for £ 295 the pair

Need to sort myself out a roof rack for my T6.1 and have a quick question Are the Thule range of accessories and in particular the Thule 874 kayak pads compatible with the current OEM Transporter roof rack? Thanks

So for a long time we have had a roof box on whenever we go camping to keep the wet stuff in. On the T4 with a proper roof rack on I could get a couple of surf boards up there beside it. Now the roof bars that fit between the rails on the T6 have less room, and we are switching to rigid sups...

I placed an order with Mark from retro racks after being told of 2 week lead time. Appears he has a big back order and is not replying to messages or phone calls. I heard of a lady on Instagram that’s been waiting since March for a rack and another guy who was told 2 week turnaround. We are all...

Hey guys, Just a bit of advice. I have the factory roof rack prep on my van but I’m not sure what bars or rack that actually takes. I’ve tried doing my research and searching on this site but not much info specifically to the prep. is there a particular type or can I put some OEM rails or...

Hi all I know this has probably been mentioned before but thought be quicker to ask . I have water dripping and water marks on the roof is this due to condensation?? cheers all

Hi Everying. I've got a detachable towbar on my T6 conversion and I want to use it for a little extra storage but I'm torn between various solutions and wondered if anyone has any advice/gotchas before I take the plunge. Basically we're going away for almost 3 weeks at the end of August and...

Hi, My van looks to have had roof rails in a past life and I have this small piece of corrosion, and have been quoted £410 to treat and spray is that expensive given the size is so small?.. Thanks

Hi all I've just had an SDV Elite roof rack fitted to my 2018 T6 Kombi which I currently use for work in the carpet trade. I am very pleased with the rack but have found that I now need a heavy duty full length step to access it. I will be eventually modifying the vehicle to a swamper style day...

I bought this rack when I ran a commercial looking T5. I don’t imagine I’ll run it on my new van so it’s up for sale. It can be mounted on the front, mid or rear bolts. £200 Collection from Bury, North Manchester

HI all. I have a 2017 T6 caravelle and i have just tried putting on my roof bars. You have to remove the roof bolt and then screw in your roof bar bolt to secure the roof bar to the roof. BUT! I managed to damage the thread of the nut that sits in the roof! Can anyone advise me on how I can...

Hello, have searched for similar posts but can't find anything. Being stuck in doors and looking out the window I have noticed the bolts on the roof have started to go rusty. See attached picture. I guess these are the roof rack bolts. My question is, shall I leave them alone, take them...

Hi all, I'm currently looking at a 2016 transporter T32 with high roof, but Ineed to be able to fit a roof rack to it. Has anyone out there done this or got any info on which would fit? It'll need to be able to carry the weight of a traditional open canoe. Many thanks, Martyn

I’ve bought a 2nd hand rack to carry my kayaks. Are the bolts that come with the T6 suitable for mounting a roof rack with or are they just effectively covers? What thread are they? M6?

Slowly getting my T6 Kombi accessorised to suit my needs. The van currently has roof rails fitted along with some Thule square steel bars, which are ok, but I am looking to fit an "expedition" type roof rack.. the type which has lots of cross bars forming a platform. Something along the lines of...
