In this video, see how to remove the roof bars from a Volkswagen Caddy Maxi. Typically, the bars are installed, but there may be times when you need to remove them: here's how to do it. First, remove the end covers that hide the fixing screws using a plastic spatula.

Then, take off the covers from the central support.

Now it's time to unscrew the bolts that secure the bars to the roof. You will need an Allen key for the ends, while a Torx bit is required for the central support.

After removing the bars from both sides, clean the bodywork thoroughly and replace the caps that you saved when installing the bars!
