I haven't got anything on the 9N's roof *sorry*.

But, to get it straight, you're looking for a Thule - style modern ski box?

Hey bart
Have done a "very very quick" photoshop for you!
I know it isnt that good but just thought it would give you an idea! Looks well smart! I like the euro look, have you ever seen the passat estate that has a roof box it also has a tralior the excact same as the car, and the tralior has a roof box too! its hard to describe. Its dark blue and its beautiful!

Anyway heres my quick shop hope it helps im sure someone can do better!

I really want a Thule box, but at the moment the small Halfords box is looking more favourable...

that pshop looks funky, but the box would sit quite a bit higher as the roof rack wont sit that low...

Makes a case for painting the box in the car's colour too. Would look ace with the Polo Fun roof bars (in silver).

Maybe a Dragongreen box as well then? :shock:

:D polo fun roof bars? Never heared of that? I'll check in the garage this afternoon. Same paint as the car would indeed give it an edge :D

Well, don't know if they're for sale or anything, but check that last pic you linked to; the yellow Fun has nice silver roof bars.

Also, this should convince the haters. If there are any, btw.

kewl :D thx mate :wink:

I think(not sure as I was not in Essen to check it myself) that the side bars on the roof are a part of the bodywork on the polo fun(jeep). Nut sure thought, but looking at the picture it seems that way..


anyways, I can always get them chromed :P of painted in chrome(I heared that was very expencive though)

Yeah deffo need to be the same colour as the car! I knew it would sit higher but I thought low euro style :D . This could be a mod in itself! "lowered roof bars" :lol:
