[VB102]

Hi All
I'm looking for information on the roof rack cross rails for an OEM rack on a 2002 Wagon. Anyone have partnumbers & prices ? Is there a better place to get them than the stealership ? Pottermans or PartsforVw.com ? Any and all info is appreciated.

I have been very pleased with the Saris Talon crossbars. $200 or so...

http://www.vw.com Go there and compare prices with your local Dealer, and make
sure that you include SHIPPING & HANDLING...and get off the *stealership*
jive...I suppose you work for a "non-profit" and that somehow you do not need an income(inheritance) or you are on welfare, or you, too, work for a living
and need to make a profit???...

Thule item 751, use this as a benchmark for pricing:

Thanks for the help guys.
Even you VWGUILD. FYI I handle a budget with revenues in excess of $ 1,000,000,000 USD SO I understand P&L. I just have a problem with the Overhead mark up most dealers charge for parts.

drewparts.com has 20% off as far as I understand original VW retail prices. enter HOLIDAY as a coupon code when checking out.
prior threads were often referring to them, I haven't used them yet to get anything [just ordered floormats there this weekend though]
have fun.
P.s. I have old yakima racks from my Audi that work as well on the Passat...similar to thule, similar in price etc...
