That's the link I posted above

Just been cursing Citreon for making the forward roof bar slot innaccessible with the likkle netty for tissue hankies up there in front of it. Thinking of Dremeling out a little half-circle. Anyone found a more elegant solution? The grandkids like the 'netty'!

I think you'll find that when the roof bars are in place, they are above the net. At least that is how mine were fitted when I purchased my Berlingo, before I took out the bars.

Thanks, Chris, I'll have another look, but it seems my net may be higher. The slot that I assume the bar should fit into is behind the plastic at the bottom. I'll try and get a decent photo up tomorrow.

Didnt we see the one chap put one in to carry his radio-control plane wings?

Make the most of the roof bars as the new XTR in the June brochure hasn't got them any more. They were one of the main reasons I was going to order this version as I wanted to store my model aircraft wings on them. Just about to order the VTR instead as then I can at least get the colour that I want AND the shelf over the windscreen which isn't on the XTR. They have a very strange policy on what's in each spec!

saw an XTR yesterday and it still has the openings / facility for installing the internal roof bars but the bars must be an option (££££ )

They're not even shown as an option! Were there fixings welded to the inside of the roof or is it simpler than that? If there's something there then a bit of fabrication in the shed might be an possibility.

Fixings for locating internal rack are basically slotted cut-outs situated behind the flaps / doors above sliding doors and above rear side windows. There's a post on the forum which shows home-made internal roof racks.See Coco's link on this thread

According to the Vehicle Configuration on Citroen UK website, the shelf above the windscreen and ability to fit the Interior Roof Bars are still part of the interior features on VTR and XTR and the interior roof bars are available as an option for£140.99. Maybe worth contacting Citroen to make sure, though.

Hi, I needed to set up an internal system this week. I bought 2 extendable poles from Wilkinsons, 4.95 each. They lock by twisting, the same as walking poles. About 2.5 cms diametre.
They are for use with mops, window squeegies etc, Also light metal construction, not plastic. Just fit the into the aperture, expand and twist to lock tight. The boot luggage net I got from TK maxx for 3.50 and just threaded that on. Given a bit of time I will make my own net fron scratch with a plastic washing line, the one with the metal strand inside.Simples.
