Crossbars for the second generation Mercedes-Benz GLS designated as X167, production of which started in 2019. The roof of this model uses raised rails, so choosing the right set is straightforward.
Looking at the roof of the GLS generation X167, you will see raised rails under which you can easily slip your fingers along their entire length. There is free space left between the rail and the painted roof surface. The feet of the carrier are attached by clamping around the rail profile from both the outside and the inside.
Each manufacturer handles attachment with their own mechanism. Therefore, always check the exact package contents directly in the detail of the selected product before purchasing to find out what components belong to it.
The GLS is one of the largest vehicles on the road, which you will notice especially when mounting accessories and loading luggage. You can comfortably reach the middle of the roof by opening the door and stepping on the vehicle sill, or with the help of a folding step.
When planning a trip with a box, keep in mind the total height of the car along with the load. In underground shopping mall garages, hotel parking lots, or when entering under low shelters, the extra centimeters will show very quickly.
You can attach a roof box, bicycle carriers, or ski holders to the crossbars. If you already have your own equipment at home, check how it attaches to the bars. Different crossbar profiles require different U-bolts or T-track mounting bolts in the crossbar.
You must include the cargo itself, the roof box, and the crossbars themselves in the total roof weight limit. The maximum permissible load for your vehicle is stated in the car's manual.
If you own a model manufactured before 2019 with the previous body type, it belongs to the older generation GLS X166. You can find the offer for other models directly in the GLS-Class category or under the Mercedes-Benz brand.
Choose the set designed for raised rails and proceed to select a specific crossbar profile.
