I wish to buy some roof bars for my 2004 5 door Megane. Popped down to Halfords and also did some Googling. I can only find bars that are suitable for cars without the panoramic sunroof. I could get some from the Renault garage but they are more expensive and these will only be used once.
I can't see why the panoramic roof should make any difference - the fixing points are nowhere near the glass and the fixings look identical to a model with a completely steel roof.
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Have you looked on the roof box company website? They know a lot about this sort of thing, and I have found them very easy to discuss different options with.
I beleive that you can hire bars from them too.

Thanks for that link. Anyway I went to the Renault dealer and they will do a set of roof bars for £93 + VAT. This seemed a good price so I have ordered them. Unfortunately the Renault roof box is almost £400 - I am afraid my loyalty is a bit stretched...
However, I was thinking about one of those soft bag things, Thule do one for about £150. The main advantage is that it collapses so is easy to store after the holiday.
Any thoughts or experiences of a soft bag as opposed to a rigid box?
