Modula Roof Rack

Gabreigns · 11-03-2015, 07:52 PM

Has anyone used or tried these roof racks called the Modula roof rack crossbars. They look great (modulacargo.com) but I have no idea how they work on a F31. Would someone be able to shed some light on this? http://modulacargo.com/product/close...ng-cross-bars/

I would also like to know if these work with any roof boxes that are placed on it?

Were you looking to not go OEM?

Because you can get OEM base support racks from dealers for $185.

Would these work on any roof railings if I moved them around to another make and model? Also what is the dealership with that great deal.

Not sure if OEM will fit other make/models.

Check ebay for deals.... got mine from an ebay BMW dealer for $185.

I'm also looking at this Modula Cargo closed railing roof rack. Seems lower than OEM and it is black, so same color as the roof rails. Not sure about the wind noise around the brackets/fit kit tough There is nothing covering the brackets...

I have not seen anybody with it yet. (I have not seen any Touring either around here haha)

I think I am going to be the Guinea pig here. I am in talks with someone who can acquire it for me sometime in the next 2 weeks. I have the OEM enroute as well.

Cool, post pics and review !

When you say someone, is it via a company/supplier or a contact you have ?

Gabreigns · 11-07-2015, 08:17 PM

This is a supplier. But I have let them know about interest in the product.

Just found out that the Whispbar S6 bars that I already have from my MK6 Golf are the same recommended for the F31 !
Just need to find/order the K796 fit kit (not available on canadian site ?) so I'll be able to attach those to the roof rails. Looks solid.
