Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Volkswagen GTI 3-Door

Question

Question:

I just have a question about the fitment of this product for the 2012 Volkswagen GTI 2DR. I know that, there is a pin hole for a little notch to help secure the roof rack in place, on both driver and pass. side. My question is, will it fit for my vehicle?

SportRack roof rack # SR1010 is only a fit for the 5-door models of the 2012 Volkswagen GTI. For a 3-door (2 regular doors and rear hatch) I recommend Rhino Rack Roof's roof rack system # RRVA118B-2 (bars),RRRLKVA (legs),DK064(Custom DK Fit Kit).
