Roof Rack?

Anyone know where I can get the Roof Rack, the 2 bars the go across the car and connects to the bars that run down the car on top?

And how much it would cost? I dont want to get ripped off by the dealership parts dept. I know they charge quite more than other shops, whether they sell aftermarket or OEM.

Thanks!

You should check a previous post for Quiet Roof Rack? in April 2003.

I contributed the following but did not receive a reply on anyone with experience with a Mont Blanc Aero Wing crossbar:

"Have a look at the following URL:

http://www.a1-autoracks.com/thulerailing.html

The Mont Blanc Aero Wing crossbars looks like it would be aerodynamic and quieter. Does anybody have experience with the Mont Blanc Aero wing crossbars?"

I recently bought the Yakima roof rack for my 2003 ML 350. Works great and easy to install. Be sure to buy the spoiler / wind diverter which mounts on the leading bar just behind the sunroof. Without this it is noisy, but with it I hear no additional noise and it really looks cool!

Yakima Roof Rack

Which Yakima roof rack and wind deflector did you get for your 2003 ML350 and where did you buy it from?

I got mine from Campmor (www.campmor.com). I live in NJ and went there to get it. Got 2 58" bars, lowrider towers, 4 locking cores, the fairing, and a boat loader. All for about $200 or so.

Suggest you call them. They are helpful and knowledgeable about the right parts.
