Default Stock roof racks.

This might seem like a bit of a reach but I'm hoping someone knows a knack for removing the roof racks of my GC8 wagon. After a bit of an eyeball I've deduced that the only solution is to remove my roof lining. Before I start I thought I might ask if there is in fact a simple solution that doesn't involve me pulling my interior apart.

Do a search over on scooby net. There were a couple of threads on doing it. It's not difficult. But I think you need to get saloon parts to tidy it up.

Hey mate
The only way is to drop the roof lining
I did mine with the missus and wasn't too bad
need a second set of hands though
I got the black strips for in the channels from JWS to fill the holes
All told was probably 3 hrs work

Hope this helps
Nathan
