I got a set of proper XTR heavy duty roof rails in factory black today, from a seller on ebay called "globalautosalvage" - well chuffed. Arrived next day, super well packed and in perfect condition. Also included the torx bolts which are like brand new, I'll be fitting those tomorrow. This is a vehicle dismantler on ebay, with 100% feedback - never seen that often - a bit like unicorn droppings.
Such a massive difference from the el cheapo ones you get online everywhere (tried a cheap set from NI and sent them back - pure rubbish), and since the real ones are near £300 new, I got a bargain with these for £99 delivered by DPD - superb! The quality of the original Citroen stuff is streets ahead of the knock-offs. Had to evict one earwig (bloody hate those, haven't seen one since I was a kid!) but otherwise, I'm now like a dog with 2 wotsits.
The van will look way better with these fitted and along with the VTR alloys, so coming along nicely.
Now have to get the interior carpeting finished if the weather allows.
