Default Thule racks? Pics anyone?

I'm kinda torn betwen the factory racks & the Thule
But between me & my brother we've got a boatload of Thule & Yakima accessories for most sports under the sun. I'm leaning towards the Thule...

anyone got pics of the Thule on his car??? Please post.

thanks

I didn't know they were different. I thought Thule made the Audi OEMs.

Default Thule parts work with the OEM rack. There is a good picture of the Thule base rack on Thule's

website or do a search here, we had this conversation about a week ago. With pics. The Thule rack is WAY different and does not use the stock mounting points. I personally think it's a Frankenstein approach and ugly.

Default If theuy are out of stock, I have a source with stock. :)

Cmon, people, say it with me... Key Audi, 904-565-4000 ask for Craig in Parts. He'll beat the Audi Boutique price I'm pretty sure.

He and I have proven that Clair uses the base rack as a loss leader in the early fall since they are in such demand, so he'll never beat their price unless he owes you a big favor! But he does price fair as he wants your business.

Default He doesn't charge bullshirt handling charges if that's what you mean. Shipping is what it costs,

not markup. Is that what you mean?
