Recommended Roof Rack For 2001 Volkswagen GTI With Naked Roof

Question

Question:

I am looking to purchase a roof rack for a 2001 VW GTI 2 Dr hatchback w/o existing tracks. I see the products that say they will fit but they dont look like they will. Can you help me choose a product that I know will work?

The only roof racks we currently carry that fit your 2001 Volkswagen GTI are the SeaSucker Monkey Bars # 298-SX6000B. They use strong vacuum cups to secure to the roof. I've linked a video of a different SeaSucker product on a VW bus that shows how strong the cups are.
