Roof Crossbar Compatibility Question 166 & 167
Just wondering if anyone knows whether the previous gen GLE roof cross bars are compatible with the current 167. This year i'll have some more free time for road trips and have been starting to look at cargo options, if compatible it'll really open up buying used options on FB marketplace/ebay etc.

As far as I know, no, the profile is slightly different.
I detailed my search for a roof rack here: https://mbworld.org/forums/gle-class...roof-rack.html
For the Thule stuff you can buy the feet separately, so you could buy a rack/bar for another model and just buy V167 feet.

Thank you guys for the information and suggestions. I’ll get back to shopping around this week for a nice setup and a rooftop box.
While on the topic of cargo, any suggestions for a hitch mounted platform?
