United Kingdom 2014 Freelander 2 TD4 XS Manual Firenze Red

I fitted a set from Powerfuluk £159
https://www.powerfuluk.com/vehicles/land-r...06608.html

They supply a drill bit to cut the hole in the roof trim, also a trim removal tool and black silicon to help secure the foot covers of the rails. In all it helps to build it up loosely before putting it on, two people needed I found, looks fine once installed and not too expensive. 2014 Freelander 2 XS TD4

2012 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Orkney Grey

There are a lot of people on ebay selling those 'Factory Style' roof bars, are they as good as the 'real thing' ?

United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Stornoway Grey

I Fitted an ebay purchase.
The metal rails fitted ok - however its the plastic trim which is just rubbish.

If I did it again would buy a more expensive set.

But they do the job

these were mine with fitting guide by me. The plastic end caps aren't brilliant,x best to bond on with Mastic from new.
Mine distorted in the heat in Spain and lost 1 although managed to buy another on ebay.Apart from that all good 5 years later
