How to mount roof bars on the Opel Astra K version.

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra K - Years 2015-2022
Part: Roof rack bars

In this video, we see how to mount the roof racks on an Opel Astra K version. We can find the original racks as recommended by our youtuber on it. Carmager. They cost 154.50 euros, including delivery. However, non-original ones can also be found online for about half the price. The mounting position corresponds to this small hole located under the roof gutter at the front of the car, and of course, there is another one on the opposite side. Once the holes are aligned, we tighten the screws that secure the racks to the top of the component, making sure to pay attention to the markings on the racks that indicate which one goes in the front and which one goes in the back, as well as which side goes on the right and which one on the left. The screws are tightened using the provided "tightening tool". We close the covers and lock them. Job done.
