James Thanks. If you do manage to get the gear, there is a way of fixing the rail without removing the roof bolts that hold the roof down first. I tried removing the bolts first but it was hell aligning them back up again. I can explain my method if you want, just let me know.

Hi jtyoung Yes I did! I used 2 aluminium airline lashing rails 2.0 mts long and 4 single screw fittings. I got them on Amazon From a company called NTG in Europe. I fixed them using the existing bolts for the pop up roof. Mir was fiddly as I hadn’t done this before but works really well.

Thanks for the response, any idea what it’s called or part number? I’ve looked in the past but can’t locate this item.

I notice that there should be a rectangular cover plate on the lower front side of the passenger wing mirror. Mine is missing and I wondered if anyone knew how I could obtain a replacement in white?

Hi Does anyone know the best rails to fit to a pop up roof on the Alphard please? I wish to fit my roof box to it. I have been advised the VW versions are too long and require a flat roof. My roof has a curve to the front. I have looked on the internet and found some Aircraft Lashing points and rails, which I believe will work and are at a reasonable cost of around £70.00.
