Hi I'm trying to retro fit roof rails to my c3 Picasso. I have the rails and replacement plastic guttering and am looking to source the threaded studs that replace the torx bolts on the roof, under the existing plastic, any ideas?

The Retro fitting roof rails to the C3 Picasso topic mentions 'a scrap vehicle' for sourcing the fixings.

But I do agree, that the correct part numbers and their source as new parts would be more helpful :D

The part number is 8301.EG - SET ALL BAR FIXING - for cars with the roof bars
8301.EG C3 Picasso roof bar mounting bolt
8301.EG C3 Picasso roof bar mounting bolt
I think you will find they are citroen dealer parts.

and the part number of the one that doesn't have roof bars is 8104.Q7 - SCREW - WITHOUT ROOF BARS
