How to Install Roof Bars on the Qashqai

Model: Nissan Qashqai J10 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Roof rack bars

How do you install roof bars on the Qashqai? Let's look at the installation. Fit the roof bar kit (as shown in the video) with the bars adjusted to the width of the vehicle. Position the brackets at both ends of the doors, and once the width of the anchoring brackets above the bodywork (rails) is adjusted, tighten the pins with the bolt until fully secured (align the bars with the roof of the vehicle). Install the original bars by removing the plastic covers on both sides of the roof. After installation, test the rigidity of the bars (before loading heavy items).
