Hi all,
I have an 07 1.1 c3. I'm looking at getting some roof bars, I've found these on eBay but these say for an 09. Is there much difference? Would they fit?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-yaris-5d-Citroen-C3-5d-roof-bars/

I also can't see how bars will fit on my car, there's no clamps or areas I can see. Unless they clamp to door frame?
Thanks

The C3 body changed considerably on the 2009 so that is why 2002-2009 won't fit 2009-on

Genuine fit 2002-2009 C3 roofbars are difficult to find, universal fit are very common,


The Citroen C3 roof bar instructions are here and show how they attach to the roof :)

Thank you, managed to bag a set if genuine citroen ones on eBay for £16, so will hopefully pick those up in a few days. Although it looks as if they just clamp to the roof? I read the attached instructions, but can't find any accessories or places to screw into? I'll have a good look when I pick them up :D
