Overview
This set of roof bars are ideal for improving the versatility of your vehicle. A tailor made fit guarantees an exact fit for your vehicle, they also come complete with locks and keys to ensure they are secure. They also come with full instructions making installation pretty easy even for a first timer.
Design
The La Prealpina bars have a very clever design which simply works! The kit consists of two Aluminium bar with an integrated T-track system. The foot kits are designed to fit each vehicle and follow the contours of the vehicle's bodywork. They are manufactured from steel and finished with an anti-corrosion thermo-setting powder coating. The kits are covered with a durable plastic casing which houses the lock mechanism. The roof bar kit is perfect for mounting all types of accessories such as roof boxes, surf boards or bike racks. Each roof rack is rated to hold an average of 60kgs. But it’s worth checking what your vehicle’s maximum load is as it can sometimes be less than what the bars can hold. To backup the quality the bars have been tried and tested and are TUV/SUD and GS approved.
Security
In contrast to many of our competitors who provide weak locks and keys, or charge additional fees for them, our roof bars come equipped with high-quality metal locks and keys at no extra cost. This not only serves as a highly effective deterrent against theft, but also grants you added peace of mind.
Fitting
Because of their simple design the La Prealpina Exact-Fit bars are guaranteed an exact fit for your vehicle. This means they are really easy to install and fitting for the first time shouldn’t take more than 20-25 minutes. The Exact-fit kit is designed to follow the curvature of your vehicle (either door jamb or fixed point depending on your vehicle) so there is no getting it wrong. The bars are mounted evenly from one side to the other, making sure there is the same equal space either end. Once everything is set in place they can be tightened down with the Allen key which is provided. For extra security, there is a lock and key set provided which locks each mounting point securely to your vehicle.
Safety
Please remember that it is your responsibility to make sure that every load you are carrying is safely secured to your vehicle. You must be aware of underground car parks and all overhead obstacles, roof bars, boxes and any associated loads add extra height to your vehicle. You must also be aware of cross winds and anything else that has the ability to affect the road handling of your vehicle. You have to be particularly aware of flexible loads such as surfboards, planks of wood etc, these must be properly tethered to the front and rear of your vehicle. Roof boxes must be loaded and used with due care.

What other customers are saying
Martin Searched everywhere for a set of these, the market leader said they did not do a set for this model despite making them for the American market. The La Prealpina set (made in Italy) fit perfectly, instructions are easy to follow & the rack will take other makes of fittings ie cycle racks etc. The kit is well made & quite suited to this model. Even coming by post to the UK from Dublin is no problem, you are kept informed of it's progress & delivery times schedule. Having used CarRacks before, items always arrive on time & well packaged. A company with a good reputation that can be relied upon for service. Thanks Mick.!
Pierre Roof Rack as described. Easy to mount. Postage delivery very fast even though I did not pay extra. Easy to comunicate with CarRacks by email or by phone. I will buy again.
Thanks Mick
George Pros: great product
Cons: none
Tim Pros: I have a Fiat Abarth which is a bit of a "hard-to-fit" car because of the short roofline. All the offerings from Thule/Yakima, etc. required short roofline adapters, which looked horrible on the car. This was easily the cleanest, most elegant solution I could find. It was also half the price of those other manufacturers. Installation was straightforward, there were no missing parts, and everything fit properly as expected. Looks like a custom install on the little Fiat...and they're both Italian.
Cons: The instructions were a bit cryptic due to the translation, but still workable. The locking covers, while offering a visual deterrent, would probably be quick work for a real thief to pop off.
Scott Pros: The only roof bars that fit the fiat 500 with glass roof.
