Yesterday I attached my Thule Load Carrier to the roof of my A2. And I was amazed how easy everything went.
I bought the 750 footpack, the 761 Bar and the 1195 adjustement kit.
The kit is needed to fit the foots to the roof of the A2. The kit consists of adjustors that click in the foots and rubberpads for under the foots in the kit.
The foots can be adjusted on the bars and in the kit are the correct settings for the front and rear bar.
Just put the thing on the roof and tighten the knobs on the bar.
The foots have rubberpads and the adjustors are plasti-coated to avoid damage to the roof.
This is one of the foots on the roof:
And this is the A2 with it's load carrier in place.
The carrier weighs about 6 /7 kilo's, so that leaves 33 kilo's to carry. The aluminium Aero bars (861) are probably lighter but they are also more expensive.
All in all I am very pleased with it, now all I need to find is a ski carrier.
I am planning to build a closet in my house and I plan to use the load carrier to transport the wooden beams on the roof.
