Hi, anyone got any advise on roof rails for my FL2. I want to know if i can easily take the official roof rails off and on when needed as i dont want to have them on all the time but only when we go camping. I have the HSE with panaramic sunroof by the way. I know they do two different rails with or without sunroof. Cheers
 
Roof bars are easy.

From memory:-
To fit the roof rails, remove plastic strips running along either side of roof, and drill two 20mm holes in each at the point indicated by the fitting instructions, you will need new double sided tape to get them to stick back on.
While the strips are off, remove the blanking plugs bonded into the roof (30mm socket?), install new pillars using appropriate sealing compound - I used silicon sealant.
Refit strips, loosely attach rails, attach cross member, tighten up.
Then fit plastic cover pieces - if you don't silicon these in place they can disappear - car wash, wind etc.

So unless you fancy having two sets of the black plastic strips, rolls of double sided tape and fighting with silicon every time you want to swap, the answer is no they are not easy to swap on a regular basis.
