I'am Kari Aho from Finland and my problem is that there is one broken roof rack adapter. I contacted Citroen reseller here in Finland and they said that I must buy the whole Roof Rack set! (200 euros).
I have searched from internet and local part sellers and is it really so that these adapters (looks like crabs (crawfish) made from THULE has been made only for Citroen C3 (2010-2016) where is Zenith window and Fixing Points?

Answer from THULE:
Hi Kari,
For many car manufacturers we make specialised roof rack just for them and a certain car. For them we do not have parts ourselves, instead, the car manufacturer is supporting the product for its warranty with spare parts. We do not offer a current roof rack for the Citroen C3 2010-2016.

Yes, those are just the right ones! But I have all the other parts unbroken and in harmony but just one that black adapter. It seems that you are also selling the whole roof rack system? Not so expensive, but there is Still extra postal charge to Finland.

Cheaper postage just for the black parts if the seller doesn't ship all the other bits.
I don't think you will find 'just' the part you need as they are the bits that break.
If you don't get the ebay listing, someone else will.
Can you not get them used, locally, if delivery cost is an issue for you?

I appreciate that you deal this worry with me, but first of all I was wondering that is it really so, that these parts made from THULE - which is worldwide roof rack vendor - is made only for Citroen C3 for years 2010-2016, and not for any OTHER models and the answer from THULE was "Ask Citroen".
I still think that this is not true, but it seems that it is like a lottery win to find those exact pieces.
And thank you for your suggestion that you would send only those pieces, but still the price is over 100 eur (93 euros and postal charge). So the postal charge is not the issue but the price itself and I have not urgent need to use roof racks before spring 2021.
