Roof Rack Removal

I think our MLs would look so much better if the roof racks were removed.

Does anyone know how to remove these? I can't find any instructions.

Or does anyone have any pics of an ML63 with them removed?

Thanks

Not sure how to do it on the Merz but in my old Audi wagon a few people tried deleting the racks and the only way was to remove headliner and get at the bolts from underneath. Not the easiest job if you can imagine. Just a thought, might be similar with the ML

Yes, correct. With the W164, the roof lining has to be removed.

Ahhh!!! Too big of a job! LOL

i actually like my roof rack. i think it adds a bit of character when i have my snowboard rack and bike rack on there. Although i hate the wind noise it makes.

Agree. The W164 in AMG trim looks really slick. The roof rack gives it some roughness that IMO differentiates it from sedas.
