Roof bars / rack for iQ

[eein]

Hi,

I'm considering putting a Roof Rack on our iQ so I can stick some bikes up there. I was wondering if anyone knows specific makes and part numbers that will fit, I suppose it's mostly about the clamp that fits around the door frame.

I don't want to put the bikes on the back of the car. I'm also aware of the various post from ~10 years ago about people saying the cars are not rated / certified for xyz weight on them. I'm ok with that. So just looking for anyone with actual experience of this and which parts they used.

All websites I've tried don't list a part, however I'm sure a part for another car will fit, just need a pointer to which one.

Thanks!

If you only have two doors a lot of roof racks wont fit.

Try Halfords see if you can fit one to the boot door.

Three sets of roof bars for the IQ on Amazon from £121 - have a search ....

I've seen some that com up on Amazon and eBay, however these retailers often list things and then they don't actually fit. Hence asking for anyone with specific experience and can confirm.

The IQ isn't rated for any roof load (at least not in the UK), so you may find some bars that fit, but it would invalidate your insurance.

It's rated to 50kg all the main rack manufactures list them, as it's a 2 door you need the short roof kit

 

Tow bars and roof racks are a very grey area and the rules are not widely enforced - to be Bob (may name isn't Frank) no one gives a carp, there are many threads with discussions of legalities on the topics
