Emergency help needed
My GF hit the garage with my mountain bike on the rack this morning. No damage to the bike or the bike rack, but it bent the roof rail on the car. Luck there's no other damage to the car. I found a rail in LA that I'll go and get today. BUT, I need to know how to get the rail off to put the new rail on. Any help any can give me I'd be very thankful for… |

I apologize for the lack of details but I remember reading a threat about switching to a different set. I remember you will have to take out the headliner for the install

It sounds like there must be more to the story for this to be an "emergency". Please share!

I'd like the M Sport fixed before Friday if possible. I could drive the X5M but I don't want to put the bikes on top of it and drive it 400 miles. Might be too tempted to press on the gas at some point and forget about the bikes being up there… :-) Anyway thanks for the input everyone. The rail will be on its way to me tomorrow. I took the car to the shop today; there's no damage to the roof. No damage to the bike or the bike rack; I got lucky. If all goes well should be fixed by Thursday. Ive got a picture on my iPhone but can't upload it from the phone of course. I'll put it up tomorrow. |
