Renault Kangoo 1998-2008 Chrome Roof Rails

Description

Chrome roof rails Digital Designs for Renault Kangoo I 1998–2008 — a pair of longitudinal rails with an aluminum profile and plastic feet that bolt into the factory roof mounting points. There are two options: “Standard base” for the regular Kangoo and “Maxi base” for the extended Kangoo Maxi; they are different lengths and are not interchangeable.

What “Choose the foot type” means: standard or maxi base

In both options the feet are the same — plastic; what differs is the length of the rail for the vehicle base. The base is not determined by model year: Kangoo and Kangoo Maxi were produced in parallel. The most reliable way is to measure the distance between the outermost factory mounting points on the roof on one side and compare it with the table from the instructions for each option.

If you’re unsure, send the manager a side photo of the vehicle or the measurement between the holes — the option will be confirmed before checkout. These rails are not intended for Kangoo II (from 2008); 2008 is a transition year, so it’s better to verify the generation by photo, not only by the registration documents.

What the rails consist of and what’s in the kit

• 2 rails — left and right, aluminum profile with a chrome finish.
• Outer feet — 2 left and 2 right; the middle feet are already fixed on the profiles.
• Decorative caps for the outer feet, rubber pads and rubber inserts under the feet.
• Bolts 8×25 — 4 pcs.

How the rails are mounted to the Kangoo roof

The outer feet are bolted into the factory roof mounting points; no drilling is required. The middle foot is not bolted to the roof — it only rests on the roof via a rubber pad; this is by design. The step-by-step procedure and the exact distances to each point are in the installation manual on the product page. You can also install the rails at the network of certified DD Tuning service centers — the manager will advise the nearest one.

No crossbars are included: these are longitudinal rails, and if needed you install crossbars for your load. Before buying crossbars, measure the distance between the installed rails.

What other rails are available for Renault Kangoo I

All options for this generation are collected in the section roof rails Renault Kangoo, other accessories — on the page tuning Renault Kangoo 1998–2008; together with the rails, customers often choose Sunplex Sport wind deflectors.
