Fit the universal roof bars to a Toyota Rav 4

Model: Toyota Rav 4 Xa40, MK 4 - Years 2013-2018
Part: Roof Rack Bars

Let's see how to mount universal roof bars on a Toyota Rav 4. Universal roof bars are used on cars with rails (fixed bar clamped in the car roof) and without. We assemble the bar holder kit as shown in the video with the bars calibrated according to the width of the car. We rest the brackets at the two ends of the car doors. Once the width of the anchoring brackets has been adjusted, we tighten the pins with the butterfly bolt (if lock is present) until they are completely anchored on the roof rails of the car. Finally, we apply the safety caps on both sides.

How to deactivate the safe lock on a Volkswagen Golf.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
