Crossbars for the first generation Mercedes-Benz V-Class W638 produced from 1996 to 2003. The offer includes solutions designed for cars equipped with raised rails.
A raised rail stands above the roof surface with free space underneath along its entire length, so you can easily slide your hand under it. The rack foot grips this rail from both the inside and the outside.
For older cars, we recommend thoroughly washing and degreasing the rails before mounting the rack. A clean surface ensures that the contact areas of the feet sit precisely on the material and will not slide on it.
The first generation V-Class designated as W638 was produced from 1996 to 2003. When choosing, follow the production year in your vehicle registration document, not the date of first registration.
If you own a significantly newer vehicle from 2014 or later, this is the W447 generation, which has different mounting requirements.
The roof area of the W638 model can accommodate multiple bicycle holders or a large roof box for a family holiday. However, keep in mind that a van with a load on the roof increases significantly in height, which you will notice in underground parking garages and low clearance gateways.
If you already have a roof box or sports equipment carriers at home, check their mounting method to the selected crossbar profile. Check the exact package contents and installation manual directly in the selected product detail before purchasing.
Browse the available variants and choose a solution for your car. Other generations can be found under the V-Class model and other models in the Mercedes-Benz category.
