Wanted X5 E70 M Sport roof rails

Hi,
Recently bought an 11 E70 3.0d M Sport and reading lots of info out there on the t'internet I see that the roof bars are different between the SE and the M Sport because of the profile.

I was wondering per-chance if anyone has some bars to suit for sale ?
I need to be able to put the roof box on and the bike rack I already have, so they need to have the groove and rubber bit down the middle.

Failing anyone having them for sale... recommendation for good ones (not the £40 ones off ebay).

Thanks
Marc

Not sure what you mean, I just had to buy a different foot set for my E53 Thule bars. The bars are the same, just the grip is different.

Im after some roof bars that will fit the E70 M Sport and they need to have the channel running down the middle to allow for the roof box I have to slot into.

OR A suggestion for good roof bars that will fit.

From what I can see there are loads out there for the SE and the M Sport is more difficult to buy for because of the low profile roof rails.

The bars are all the same though? I am currently using the SE bars with my M sport by using the different feet.

It is the feet that are the problem, not the bars?
