I have just taken delivery of a new Multispace and am looking for advise on how to remove the factory fitted roofbars. Most particularly how to take the plastic covers off without damaging them in order to access the bolts underneath.
My reasons.
1 Height with the roofbars is 1862mm while height limit for a saloon car on Brittany Ferries is 1830mm. Not sure if they will mind 3cms extra but better safe than sorry. My wife and I are travelling to France in early November.
2.In the longer term I wish to replace them with 3 transverse bars to support a rooftop tent plus awning for extended camping trips in Europe.
My Citroen dealer had a parts list but no advise on removing them. My experience of removing plastic parts is that they break easily if forced.
I attach a photo and welcome any advise.
