WTB - Roof Rack System Looking for parts or a complete roof rack for the ti. Brand does not matter |
|
Sweet, thanks for that find! I did a search and didn't find anything directly related, but can a a Thule bike rack fit to the BMW roof rails? (this question is directed to anyone, not just you eurohb) |
why not just buy the oem rack for cheaper then the thule one and not having any issues with fitment? I don't know just my .2's but OEM or nothing i see |
Oh I definitely plan on buying the OEM rails because of the price, I am just wondering if I could then use a Thule Bike rack to clamp onto the OEM rails. I'm trying to find dimensions of the BMW rails so I can see if the bike rack will need to be modified |
I'm not quite sure how the Thule attachment system works, but if it is clamp-on, it will most likely fit (but may require some minor modification). If it is some sort of modular system, it may not. I have the OEM racks and an aftermarket Inno bike mount and it works fine. I also have the OEM snowboard mount (also NLA) and while it attaches to the rack nicely, it leaves a little to be desired, performance wise. I can take a look at my racks a little later today and get some measurements for you. |
hit up ecs tuning about the bike holders they have http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E36-318...oof/ES1905629/ http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E36-318...L/Search/Roof/ rocky mounts is a direct fit for the rack it seems. |
That rack pictured is a little different design than the ti, but the but the top slot on the rack where the front of the bike carrier mounts looks about the same dimensions. I think I may have to get a white one! |
