Question:
I just bought a 2012 Volkswagen golf Tdi I’d like to transfer my Q tower roof bars but it looks like I might need new clips. Do you have the part numbers for new clips. I have Q35, and 128 stamped on my clips thank you

Hey Matt, thanks for reaching out!
The Q Clips that fit your 2012 Volkswagen Golf TDI are Q96 and Q102, but these have been discontinued so you'll be hard-pressed to find them anywhere.
Since you already have the round bars I can list out the other parts needed for a round bar roof rack so you don't have to get an entirely new rack:
- BaseLine Towers # Y28TR
- BaseClip Fit Kits # Y06134 and # Y06148
- RoundBar SL Adapter # Y03536
- Lock Core Kit # Y07204 (optional)
What do you normally use your roof rack for?
