Default Source for roof/gutter molding???

I just bought a '98 V70 AWD and took the roof racks off for easier snow removal (wouldn't use them anyway). Dealer wants $173 a side for the full length roof moldings.

Is there somewhere else to get these !!??

I have been searching the web for days and haven't even found any "generic" roof moldings of any kind. It is a basic "T" molding. I have all the clips. It is my sons car, so I am not THAT picky about it. I would even silicone a generic molding on there if need be.

TIA for any help.....

Anyone? I Googled the PN from the dealer and it looks like the same trim as used in the 850s. Can anyone confirm this?

Default Roof racks

Hi,
I'm considering getting a V 70, with no racks, but I might be interested the ones you took off. Let me know.

You can use the 850 ones.... If you have a salvage yard near you, check there or go on Craigslist and see if anyone is parting out a wagon.... You can find them fairly cheap, but Shipping is where the expense adds to the price..

Then I might be interested in your moldings. I was going to put the rails and crossbars on eBay. We could probably work something out. Get back to me and let me know if you get your V70.
