Question:
Looking to purchase a Thule wing bar root rack for my 2016 Audi A6 Quattro. While it’s mentioned I don’t see any of the optional factory hold down hardware that is compatible with this rack, can you help?

Hey John,
The 2016 Audi A6 Quattro 4-door sedan doesn't have factory mounting points so you would need to go with a roof rack system that clamps onto the door jamb like the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # TH42TG. The clamps are designed to fit the curvature of the door jamb and have pads to prevent scratching the paint. I've attached a picture below as well as video where Matt will show you how this style of roof rack gets installed.
If you have any other questions just let me know any I'd be happy to help.

Kevin, Yes I Understand that, my question was related to what hardware is available to hold the roof rack cargo to the , roof rack bars. It’s mentioned that the roof rack bars have a “T” slot for cargo hold down, but I don’t see where this hardware is described , details , or where it can be purchased.
