interested to see how many bike carriers you can get on the edge bars. Do you think you could get 4? Also do you have a sun roof and does it open with these bars?

Don't have a sunroof

Unlikely to get 4 carriers on and certainly wouldn't get 4 bikes

Most bike handlebars are at least 40cm wide ( even more for mountain bikes ) so there wouldn't be the room. The wing bar edge are narrower than normal as they don't protrude beyond the roof rails

Probably get 3 bikes on with the middle one facing backward

I will take a pic when I put both bikes on to see how much room there is

Roof box by Rob E, on Flickr

First time fitting the Thule box on the 230 (crate for the pooch in the boot). Didn't really need it in the end as there was still plenty of space around the crate.

Although the box is a dark silver colour it looks really good against the meteor (i'd actually love to colour match it in meteor grey too but too skint).

which box and bar set up did you use please and how did you get on with it? TIA

those are OEM roof bars and the box is THULE Atlantis 600 - had it for a few years now - excellent piece of kit.

pretty sure the oem skoda bars are thule too.. in which case it might be cheaper to buy ones with thule badges rather than skoda.
