I just bought a used 2000 V70 XC Wagon and it came with Volvo roof cross bars. They seem to need a special tool to take them off. Is this true? If so, where can you buy one? If not, what else can I use to take them off. They whistle.

 

You know the simple answer to that question would be go to the dealership.

If it is a special tool them I am sure they have it. And might sell them too.

What needs to be removed? A screw or something? What does the head of it look like?

Star Head?
Torx?

 

The cross bars should need a T-30 safety torxes to loosen and remove the cross bars.
