Which 97-99 Volvo wagon models had roof racks?
Hi everybody!
Question up front - What Volvo wagon models from 1997-1999 had factory roof racks?
Background - I just bought a used 99 V70 and it did not have a roof rack. I went to a pick-n-pull in the Bay area and grabbed a factory roof rack with cross bars and factory cut trim from one of the many 97-99 wagons on the lot ($30!).
I am trying to get some bike mounting equipment (Yakima) and have found that I need Yakima cross bars to do what I have in mind to transport my bikes. In order to assure I order the right rail grab towers, I need to know what models had the roof rack. Everything I've seen on Google suggests the baseline V70 did not have the option for the roof rack. But, my Google search led me to this forum.
Thanks for any help! I hope this is a softball newbie question for enthusiasts. Happy New Year!
Dave

I mounted a yak-rak I had laying around to my v70. I just drilled holes, tapped em, and put some stainless machine screws with blue loctite and a silicone sealer. Plenty of meat in the rain gutters for some DIY fun. Had to cut out little sections of the trim pieces, but it looks good from 10 feet away, and it looks stockish.
