    Default Help needed from those who have genuine roof bars - hatch and estate

    I've just bought a pair of genuine vx roof bars for my hatch and while the both fit fine, the front roof bar is about 10mm higher than the rear.... Have I bought an estate kit?

    Just checked mine ( hatch bars ) and the brackets on them are the same height with same numbers on - just a different location highlighted on each sticker - ie front left etc

    ********, looks like they'll be going in the swap section. Can anyone confirm the estate has one high and one low?

    Glad you brought this up as I was going to buy some roof bars for my estate and I would have searched specifically for estate ones, thought they would all be the same fit.
