Selection of crossbars for the Volkswagen Golf 5G generation from 2012 to 2019. All kits in this category are designed for bare roofs; simply choose the profile and finish according to your needs.
The Golf 5G hatchback features a roof without any protrusions. The mounting kit for this body type uses a precisely shaped fitting that rests on the roof and hooks under the door frame lip.
When tightening the feet, follow the enclosed manual for the specific kit. Before mounting the rack, it is advisable to clean the contact areas of dust and minor impurities so that the feet rest on clean paint.
The 5G generation was produced until 2019, when the newer CD generation arrived. If your car is from 2019, verify the exact version in your vehicle registration document, as the newer model has a differently shaped door frame and requires a different mounting kit.
Always check the exact list of individual parts and accessories in the selected product detail, as the package contents vary among different manufacturers and variants.
You can easily attach bike racks for summer trips as well as a roof box for your winter holiday onto the crossbars. When choosing accessories, check the mounting method—whether they attach using clamps around the profile or by sliding into the T-track in the crossbar.
Keep in mind that a car with loaded cargo will increase in height, which needs to be monitored especially when entering underground garages. Choose a suitable crossbar set, or view other generations of the Golf model or the selection for the Volkswagen brand.
