Does Thule Roof Rack for 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan Fit if Vehicle Has Sunroof

Question:

I’m debating between the Thule Wingbars and Rhinorack Vortex Aero. The description for the Vortex setup actually states that it won’t work with a sunroof, but nothing is noted on the Thule setup’s description regarding the sunroof. I can’t find a clear answer to this anywhere. Please help! I want to be able to still use my sunroof with the bars attached when I’m not actually carrying anything…

Thule's Wingbar Edge Roof Rack part numbers # TH63RE and # TH69SC that fits your 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan with raised side rails does fit models that have the glass roof. Thule recommends not opening your sunroof with the rack and accessories installed though.
