Cabrio roof racks??
I've seen Mk 3 Cabrio roof racks for sale….They are the same design as the Mk 1 roof racks…..Wondered if anyone knew whether with some adjustment they may fit the mk1 cabrio….VW are often lazy…may be similatr dimensions despite Mk3 seemingly bigger!!!???

If demand is at a worth while level then why not try to get the plans for the cabby roof rack or borrow one and take it to a parts company, see if they can make a batch?
