How to Fit Universal Roof Bars on a Lancia Ypsilon

Model: Lancia Ypsilon 843, MK 2, Ypsilon 2, Y2 - Years 2003-2011
Part: Roof rack bars

This video shows how to fit universal roof bars on a second series Lancia Ypsilon. Universal roof bars can be used on cars with or without roof rails (fixed bar secured to the car roof). Fit the roof bar kit as shown in the video, using bars calibrated to the width of the car (use a tape measure). Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the car's original roof rails. Once the width of the anchoring brackets is adjusted, tighten the pins with the butterfly bolt (if a lock is present) until they are fully secured to the roof rails. Finally, apply the safety caps on both sides.
