A8 LWB Roof Rack / Snowboard Rack / Sky Box?
I have searched the Forum, but the only feedback I have found is pretty old and states that it's impossible to find a roof rack for the A8L.
Any update to this? I would like to take my family snowboarding and definitely would prefer to drive the A8L there....
It sounds silly that there's no option in this day and age, or that the Audi parts are impossible to find...
Thank you in advance. If somebody did it, a real-life picture would also be great.....

Thank you. I had found that, but it says:
Compatible with Audi A8 2011+ NWB only. Not compatible with LWB.
On the bottom....so basically, no luck on carrying anything on the LWB.....crazy!

I have been waiting for an update from Audi on that very question. No one can say why the LWB cannot use the roof rack. I thought perhaps the shape of the mount is SLIGHTLY different. I have some Toule Racks I put on a 325, then M3, then A6, then RS6 but did not look to see if they have a mount for the A8. It's a bit of a mystery why the "engineers' would not have a solution for this vehicle. I thought the majority of A8's are the Long wheel base??
