I may get the bike attachement later this winter as prices come down for summer rec stuff. Wide price variations here, some are absurd. I got the ski/snowboard attachment for 140 shipped new. I got the base rack system for 175 shipped on eBay new. The whole system is extremely strong, you can rock the whole car side to side hard pulling on the rack, zero flex in the racks. Both threads are available in 3 lengths: 25mm, 50mm, or 75mm. They are a direct fit into our Toolmate T-Track. They go inside the tiny flip-up compartment under the rack feet to protect the paint. These are all-metric threaded M6 or M8 T-slot bolts and have 18 x 12mm heads and are zinc plated. Also there are 4 little adhesive pad things that come with the rack kit new that you may not get used. Don't lose it! The nuts have like torx heads but with a dimple inside so you cannot use reg tools. 4x M8 Stainless Steel Eye Bolt Fit For Rhino Thule Yakima Pro Rola Roof Rack B5. Any rack that uses the 4 factory mounting holes will be equally easy to remove/install.īMW base kit comes with a special tool to install/remove it's a mini calibrated torque wrench. T Slot Bolts Thule Yakima Roof Rack Cross Bars Platform Cargo Basket Stainless. The snowboard attachement is kind of huge. I like the looks of the base rack system, clean and simple. I recently installed the BMW rack on an e92.
