I have just purchased a Thule Karrite Odyssey 580 roof box, 775 footing and 969 WingBars. Delivery is 10 Oct. Anyone else got the same combination?

I have the same feet and bars with a Thule Atlantis 200 (withdrew T track adapters). Easy enough to mount and demount, the bars are on the car at the moment as we are constantly moving ladders and stuff around and they are quiet at motorway speed and have not really made a noticeable impact on fuel economy.

A little tip... the rear wheel makes a fantastic 'step ladder' for getting up to fit and fill the box.

Cheers Weasley, I'll keep that in mind

By the way, that should say "...with the T track adaptors...". They are a bit more fiddly to mount than the bar clamps, but free up space in the box and have a very clean, low profile (the box looks like it is just sitting on the bars).

Got the bars and footings - took me a while to suss it out........

Weasley ~ what T-Track system did you get to fit the 969 bars?

These'n's...

Cheers, I'll check out Halfords and see if they've got them

Try Amazon, they'll be cheaper than Halfords!

Or towequipe.co.uk or their ebay shop, which is cheaper!

Towequipe seem to be the cheapest ~ will order them (maybe) if the ones that come with the roof box argn't up to much.

Collecting the roof box Saturday morning..........

Got it fitted - the hint to stand on the rear wheel was good but I still struggled to reach and tighten the front offside internal fittings in the roof box. It's definitely big enough for what I want but the aerial needs to be removed while the roof box is in situ.
