So I just got myself a set of 17" Resolfens with cracking tyres, and now looking for a set of roof rails. I did try a set from 4x4 centre northern Ireland but they were terrible and I sent them back.
I'm looking for a genuine recommendation for a set off eBay that are good quality and fit perfectly. I hate poorly made crap.
Currently considering these:

Anyone have a better suggestion for good quality rails?

Cheers Jake, I've looked for used ones but there's only one pair and they don't look original. No scrappies near me anywhere but I'd be well happy with used original rails. Just can't find any yet on eBay.

Found these from Vospers in the South West, anyone used them?

£248 brand new. Head and shoulders above the eBay stuff.

These would do the job but collection only.... the probably would post them but they don't have the key for the cross bars
Could always have a day trip out

Haha already spoken to that lady, they have lost the keys so can't dismantle them. We aren't allowed to travel far from where we live, in Scotland. Police checkpoints are in place to prevent movement and we carry letters of authorisation to travel to work. (I'm a key worker)
Those roof bars are 200 miles away in England...so no go I'm afraid.

Shame..... you would think that a couple of tuppence ha'penny locks on the cross bars would be easy enough to tackle considering the seller has the nouse to remove the roof rails...

Yep! I tried logic, didn't work on her.
