Has anyone bought a Thule roof bar pack & feet for their FL Octy?

I have looked on Thule's website and they don't list the Estate FL. Or perhaps the 98' Octy has the same roof rails as the FL? Unlikely I know but the MK2 Octy isn't listed either, well it is but there's "NO FIT"

Don't really want to buy the OEM as I already have Thule bars from my last car which I think I can use with the correct feet pack for the Octy.

Any help welcome, cheers.

Strange.

I have just bought a 56 plate mk2 Octavia estate (pre-facelift) and I plan to use the same Thule roof bar kit as I had on my B5 Audi S4 as the rails on the two cars look identical. Off the top of my head I have the 755 foot pack and the 861 aero bars.

I collect the car on Saturday so I could try the bars on Sunday for you if you like.

Just checked the Thule fit guide, both the mk1, 2 and 3 are listed, they all say to use the 757 kit 861 bars. The 757 is the new version of the 755, both will fit.

Have a look in halfords as I have some bars that fit the Scout from there which are cheaper than the thule ones. cheers - Stuart

Try HERE for an alternative thule link, you have to select octavia III though for some reason

The roof rails on the facelift and pre facelift are identical.

That sounds right, those Thule feet are quite generic for roof rails. I originally bought 755 feet for a 2003 Passat Estate, they are being used on my Accord Tourer and are the correct feet for the Superb Combi which is to be delivered imminently. As you say the 757 superseeds the 755; it took me a while to figure that out a few months ago, I originally thought that I need new feet for the Superb.
