Renault Scenic/Grand 2003-2009 Chrome Roof Rails (2 pcs)

Description

Chrome Roof Rails — a pair of longitudinal roof rails for Renault Scenic II and Grand Scenic II 2003–2009 Digital Designs: “chrome” color aluminum profile with plastic feet, installation into the factory roof mounting points, комплект includes 2 rails and an installation kit. The option is selected in the parameter “Oberitʹ bazu avtomobilia”: “Short wheelbase” — for the standard Scenic II, “Long wheelbase (Grande)” — for the extended Grand Scenic II. These rails are not installed on Scenic I (up to 2003) and Scenic III / Grand Scenic III (from 2009).

Which wheelbase to choose: Scenic II or Grand Scenic II

The kits are model-specific to the roof length, so a short-wheelbase rail will not fit the Grand, and vice versa. Dimensions — from the instructions for each option:

The wheelbase is determined by the body, not by the number of seats: Grand Scenic can also be a five-seater. You can see the difference from the side — by the body length and the shape of the rear side window. If in doubt, send the manager a side photo of the car.

Will these rails fit Scenic III or Scenic I

No. Scenic III and Grand Scenic III 2009–2016 have a different roof shape and mounting points, and Scenic I 1996–2003 as well, so second-generation rails do not fit them. 2009 is a transition year between generations: use the body as a reference, not the year in the documents. Look for products for a different generation in your model’s section.

How the rails are mounted on the Scenic II roof

• Three feet on each rail. The middle one is already fixed to the profile, the end ones are inserted before installation.
• Short wheelbase: the front and middle feet are bolted on, the rear one is clamping, it is not bolted to the roof and is held by the rail’s shape.
• Long wheelbase: all three feet are bolted on — front, middle, and rear.
• Points are not chosen at random: the rail is positioned according to the distances in the table so that the foot holes match the factory roof points. No metal is drilled, the headliner is not removed — the bolts are screwed in from above.
• Tightening order: first start all bolts by hand, then tighten gradually. The rubber pads must sit under the feet without misalignment.

The instruction with dimensions and a diagram for each wheelbase can be downloaded on the product page.

What’s included

• 2 rails — left and right, with the middle feet fixed in place;
• 4 end feet and 4 decorative covers for them;
• rubber elements: 4 pads No.5, rubbers No.1 and No.2;
• bolts 6×25 and 6×60 (for the long wheelbase 6×25 — 4 pcs, for the short — 2 pcs);
• 2 oval caps that cover the service holes above the middle feet.

Chrome or black and what else to install on the roof

If chrome doesn’t match the body color, for the same vehicle there are Black roof rails (2 pcs) with the same choice of short or long wheelbase and installation into the factory mounting points. Wash the chrome profile together with the car body using car shampoo, without abrasive compounds.

Roof rails are longitudinal bars; crossbars for a roof box, skis, or a bicycle are purchased separately. These rails fit lockable crossbars for roof rails (2 pcs): the roof box is installed on the crossbars, not on the rails. The permissible load is determined by the weakest element — the roof, the rails, or the crossbars — so distribute the load evenly. All roof products for this body are collected in the section roof racks and roof bars Renault Scenic II.
