Re: remove roof rack
the bolts that hold the roof rack on require the right tool or they become a pain in the ass, you can search previous threads like dominic's for more info on that.

Re: remove roof rack
Did you have any problems getting it off. I read something about the posts falling into the liner, etc.

Re: remove roof rack
I had no problems myself, just take your time when loosening them up and removing the bolts.

Re: remove roof rack
I removed mine last week, used a cordless drill, out in 5 minutes, all pieces stayed in shape. Just need to be gentle.
