Pretty certain they are made by Thule to be honest. Nice touch is that you can lock the covers into the groove guides so they are quite secure.

The Q5 bars are almost the same as the thule T bar.
Josh,Thanks![]()
Having had a close look. I reckon the OEM 440 litre one in the Audi brochure @ ?385 is in fact the Thule Atlantis 200 available at ?272 from Thule UK.
So food for thought. I think I may take Crustynoodle's advice and go for that one and save some cash.
Assuming the weather turns up here, I'll be washing the car and seeing if I like the box or whether I want to change it - if that happenes I'll take a snap and post it, my Q5 is also Daytona grey, allegedly (havent seen it not covered in salt or snow since it arrived!)Thanks Robbie
I'm still tempted by that Kamei 390 in grey. Waiting for some colour samples from Roofbox
Not the artiest shots but should give an idea. Am quite impressed with the box and plenty of room for a couple of bike carriers.I'll look forward to that
The wife helped but to be fair we dropped it onto the Tbar fittings (which we'd already placed in the rails) from above, so a little fiddly. Having taken it off today by loosening the bolts inside the box and sliding the whole thing out it was much easier. 5 minutes on my own and it was all (inc bars) safely off the car. I think now the Tbars are attached to the box it would be possible to fit on your own, without much drama. Have just used the roofbox.co.uk supplied boxlift to store it in the garage roof, very easy.Thanks Robbie![]()
That looks good. Did you put it on yourself or did you have a helper![]()
I ideally need to be able to do it myself and if not I will have to ask a neighbour.
Gloss black, definitely!Got the Kamei samples today. I think the black looks best with Daytona Grey. The grey is very light.
Off to get a dog cage measured up tomorrow. So will see after that
