Default Roof bars for saloon.

This might not be the correct place for this thread but i cant find a relevant one.

Looking for roof bars for a 2005 STi. Have searched the forum but no luck. Is there one that fits well? Thule say they have one that will fit but not WRX. As far as i know the WRX and STi have the same roof.

Any help would be good.

Have bought most of my roof bars, roof boxes, bike racks, etc. from here over the years.

www.roofbox.co.uk

Though looking up a Scooby in there of 2005 vintage it seems like Thule may do a set of bars and adapters but only for Imprezas without wind deflectors whatever they are. You could ring and ask?

Ive had the thule ones on my 05 blob before.

I know it says not for wrx or sti but I think they don't recommend them for performance cars that's all.

Ive also had bars on an ep3 civic type r even tho again it stated "NOT FOR TYPE R"

Hope this helps

I've got the Thule ones on my 05 WRX saloon, fits fine but make sure the paint underneath the pads is spotless before you fit.

ps. if this is for bike racks bear in mind the size of the STI spoiler. I've got the Thule fork mounts and the WRX spoiler is an inch off hitting them when the boot is open.

I have a set of Thule roofbars I bought on here but never actually used, if you're interested?

It comprises:

- Thule 950 foot pack for gutterless cars.
- Thule 206 adaptor kit
- Thule 120cm rapid system roof bars (not aero style)

Looking for £85 delivered, which is what I paid for them
