Roof bar help!

Post by Russ »

Hello all,

I'm new to here currently have an 89 silver bx leader. One of Richards stash from keithley. I'm sure you all know him and his fleet!

Anyhow I'm just wondering if xantia roof bars will fit on my saloon body? As ive seen some on ebay....cheap of course.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Russ

Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

If the bars for sale on eBay are the Thule type then it would be just a case of getting BX specific "feet", however genuine Citroen Xantia ones wouldn't, as they are designed for gutter less cars. As Tim said, rare car. Be nice to see some pics.
