How to Add Roof Rack to 2003 Volkswagen Eurovan
Question:
I am looking for a set of crossbars for 2003 Eurovan. My old set had C-clamps but I do not see similar setup anymore. The roof of the Eurovan is bare so there are no attachment points. Any suggestions?

To add crossbars to your 2003 VW Eurovan you're going to need an attachment point of some kind unless you want to use the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B which uses a vacuum-mount. If you do not want to use the SeaSucker, I recommend the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack. This will require the following parts:
-Rhino-Rack RT-Style Roof Rack Tracks - Rivet Mount - 66" Long - Qty 2 # RRRTV168
-Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 59" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA150B-2
-Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - RTC and RT Roof Rack Tracks - Qty 4 # RRRLT600
Installation of the tracks will require drilling as well as a rivet gun. Once installed, you will be able to attach the quick mount legs along with the Vortex Aero crossbars for a complete roof rack.
