Hi all.
I've just inherited a Honda HR-V. I've done some big trips in it with the previous owner, towing a camper trailer into the bungles and down the
Gibb River Rd. Yes, it's not designed for that kind of trip which is why I've inherited it; the previous owner is trading up to a REAL 4x4.
Anyway, it has the spoiler and I want to fit roof bars to it. I haven't picked it up yet so haven't had a look at how it all fits together but does anyone out there know how I'd go about fitting roof bars too it? I've had a look at some in the street and they have four access panels but I'm not sure if they're for fitting roof bars or for securing the spoiler. Any advice would be great, thanks...

These were not populair in Australia, some sat around for 12 months before being sold.
That is the reason Honda ditched them.
Repairs can be expensive, and parts may also be hard to come by.
I would have the car inspected by someone who really knows Honda's, the engines are subject to sludging if not serviced correctly.

It's my Mum's. She's getting a rodeo ute. It's been serviced by honda by the book since new and it's better than the '90 magna wagon I'm trying to keep alive now...
Used to have a Disco, god I miss it. But after being hit by someone that couldn't pay up, a blown head gasket and then spun valves I couldn't afford to keep it anymore....
That had a roof rack, how do I stick one on top of an HR-V?
