2019 S3 roofrails

Hi,

I've recently bought new genuine roofrails for my 2019 S3 but having real trouble finding a bodyshop to fit them. I know what's involved but just struggling to find somewhere. I'm prepared to go anywhere in Britain but I'm looking for anyone that's had them fitted or recommends a good bodyshop to carry out the work. 

Cheers, Bruce.

Hello Bruce,

It sounds as if this model is still similar to the earlier A3, where the roof has to be drilled to fit these rails. I thought about it for mine, but decided that wasn’t going to be for me. I can well understand Bodyshops not wanting take this on - there are easier ways of making a living, and I feel you may indeed continue to struggle to find anyone who is interested, and if they are, you have to have complete faith in their ability and experience in carrying out a good job. 

Hopefully, one of the members has had a similar quest, and has found someone who has indeed carried out a good job. - fingers crossed for a favourable response.

Kind regards,

Gareth. 
p.s. Whereabouts is Alva? - save me looking it up!

Thanks Bruce,

No change from mine then. 
Is it essential that you fit roof rails as opposed to under- door-aperture roof bars (when needed) - not that I like this type.

Aren’t the supplying dealer of the rails prepared to arrange fitting? 
Kind regards,

Gareth.

Hi Gareth,

                It was an Audi dealership in Bath and they only supply them, I did ask but they couldn't help. Hopefully someone has had them fitted and can recommend a bodyshop.

Cheers, Bruce.
