Vanstyle Side bars?

[Pedro]

Thanks @Jules , no not lowered as of yet , problem I have is I carry some serious weight in her so when she is loaded it looks lowered by 50 mil....

mine has Vanstyle side bars on, £128.00 if I remember correctly, they have been on since june, gets cleaned every weekend and so far the quality is looking good, as its a 3rd of the price of VW bars, I don't mind changing them every couple of years if need be, they fit exactly the same way as genuine VW bars, are the same size tube and the same grade stainless (so I am told)
no brainer really

I am just sitting at Vanstyle now having mine fitted. I was toying with having these roof bars fitted but due to the shape of the van they give the impression of the bars sagging in the middle so I have just stuck the normal ones.

does anyone know if the vanstyle side bars foul the vehicle jacking point? I hate to admit it but I'm thinking of getting them fitted when mine goes in for a lineout......but fitted they come in at over £300 (no doubt including a healthy mark up!). Has anyone fitted their own.....if so, is it an easy job?

 

[Pedro]

@mopardave , had the vanstyle sidebars fitted for £126 at their place, and no they don't foul the jack points as they finish just before them, it was a bit of a drive to them but if your getting a few things done it to well worth the drive, also happy with the quality of them too.

How much have you lowered your van Rob? And what springs did you go for, I'm booked in at vanstyle this weekend and like how your van is sitting, ps nice wheels,got the same fitted to my cherry red

@Lawce the blue one isn't mine unfortunately, it's Vanstyles own demo but I do know it's had the Bilstein coilovers fitted.

Sorry Rob, think today's rain has melted my head, how we're vanstyle? Up to now they have been fantastic with their service with me(emails/phone calls).

 

[Rob]

I couldn't fault them and the products them self seem to be really good.

 

[Buggirl]

So which is the best set of side bars and what do folk think of these?
