Just a word of caution - I had OEM rack on for the summer and it left marred surface where rubber is touching roof rails. Will probably need something like 3M clear bra pieces under those rubber for protection
do you think taking them off frequently(putting them on when you only need to carry but off when you dont) would not cause marring. I got them bc they are easy to take on/off but scared if i leave them on for a duration it will cause damage to paint.
Harrison Stone I'm not sure, these bars are for vw, they have a pin that matches with a hole in the car, I'm sure you can probably find a set of bars for the carolla. If your asking about the wind reflector it should, it's universal so it can install to any bar, just got to get the right width for your car. I'm Mexican.
lydel Macapagal I got it as a birthday present, but you can buy them from amazon, the rack is a volkswagen rack and the wind fairing is an INNO brand, its a universal one, not sure what size, you can also find it on Amazon. The car is a 2015.
not bad not much of a difference, when i first put these on i did notice some wind noise, but very little, after riding with them for a while you don't really notice it any more.

thanks for the great tip! Here in Arizona,, it goes up to over 115C during summer so that sounds like a great idea
Hi, please write to me if there is a chance of water getting between the gasket and the metal plate that holds the trunk?
Did it cause any scratching/marking to the paint around the door? Thanks
Stefan Watson no scratches, paint looks perfectly fine.
Will the VW rack meet the clearance of a panoramic sunroof on a 2015 model Golf? Also, can you use accessories other than VW , ie Thule bike rack?
No idea about the clearance, on the bike racks you can use other than oem, I have a pair of Yakima front loaders on mine, not sure on the Thule brand.
awesome video, thanks bro!!
What side bars are those called, I'm trying to get the same ones for my golf.

How do you find wind noise with these?

You did not provide any help on how to install this. Inter, the video should be titled "hot guy doing something"
Was the video titled a how to? I think not.
