Anyone seeking OEM roof racks? Found 2 on CL

These pop up rarely, here are two for sale if anyone's looking.. I know winter is coming..

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/bik/2604296132.html

These are slightly use however look and work like new. They came off of my 2005 E350 and screw right into the holes in the top of the roof under the little flip up covers. The towers do adjust so might fit several other Mercedes applications. Please look up to make sure it will fit your application. I used it for carrying my bike around. Most all bike racks should fit. I used Thule...The Thule wind valance also fits well on these.. The rack is rated at 220 pounds. It comes with locks that lock rack to car and key is included. I paid almost $400 for these at my local dealer. 916-847-6029

Can you by chance mention the model number of the Thule Valence / Fairing model number that fit these OEM cross bars the best? I wish to get a set as you mentioned but only if it fits without mods...


Many Thanks in advance.

I hope thats a joke?

and I don't know why you are responding in this thread with questions, you guys should emailing the original owners. I just saw these and wanted to share.. I posted my bike rack up and got like 10 people who wanted my rack, so I wanted to share..

2008 = W211, and you are reading the W211 section?

that crazedlist site sucks btw.. I use http://www.allofcraigs.com now.. works pretty well and is much much faster.. there are others too.

I search for "e class", "e350" , e550, e55, e63, and other keywords and filter it to post in the last week/24hours and auto parts only.

I'm looking for non-4matic winter mats for the back, and the oem sunshade currently, and some other odds and ends.
