Crossbars for the Passat Variant B5 family estate from 1997 to 2005. The selection corresponds to vehicles that come from the factory with raised roof rails with a clear space between the rail and the roof.
The fifth-generation Passat Variant uses raised roof rails that stand above the roof and allow your hand to slide underneath them. The roof rack foot clamps directly around them.
For vehicles from 2005, check the month of manufacture or the body shape. In that year, the newer generation Passat Variant B6 was introduced to the market, which features different roof dimensions and a different mounting system.
When choosing a rack, consider what accessories you plan to transport on it. Bicycle carriers, ski holders, and roof boxes are attached to the bars using a T-track in the crossbar or using standard U-bolts. Each manufacturer packages their sets differently, so please verify the exact component breakdown directly in the description of the selected product.
Before mounting the feet, clean dust and mud from the roof rails so that the rubber contact surfaces hold firmly in place and do not slip. If you are loading a roof box for a family holiday, keep in mind that the total roof load capacity includes the weight of the cargo, the box itself, and the crossbars. The maximum permissible roof load is specified by the manufacturer in the vehicle manual.
Choose a set from the selection according to your plans, or browse other versions in the Passat Variant category or Volkswagen brand models.
