Any roof bar recommendations for 1999 Yaris

[martin23785]

Hi everyone, just joined here. 

Also just bought a 1999 5 door Yaris with a sunroof and I’ve been looking at universal roof bars as it has no rails.

I was wondering if anyone used and could recommend any. A car shop told me about excess clamping pressure can distort the sunroof aperture causing leaks. 

Many thanks if someone’s got any advice. 
Cheers Mart

Thule are always a good choice. 
excess clamping pressure. Lol. 
most systems clamp at 2 nm otherwise it distorts any roof. 
Have a look here. https://www.thule.com/en-gb/roof-rack/car-roof-racks/thule-wingbar-evo-_-711xxx?fitassistant=make%3ATOYOTA|Toyota%2Cmodel%3AYaris+3-dr+Hatchback|Yaris%203-dr%20Hatchback%2Cyear%3A1999-2005|1999-2005%2Cvariation%3Aroof-type-617942|Raised%20rail

Hi Paul, thanks for this.

Unfortunately my car doesn’t have roof rails, hence my clamping comment. Although I take your point about about the low pressure.

Given that I only need them for occasional use, a universal setup would probably work.

Thanks Mart
