In this tutorial we can see how to mount the original roof bars on the Opel Astra, an extremely simple and quick operation. First of all, we identify the four small doors located on both sides of the roof, then we open them using a plastic spatula if necessary.

We then position the base of the first bar inside the respective housing, tighten the locking lever and repeat the operation with the second bar. At this point, all that remains is to place the four covers and secure them using the metal key of the remote control.
