About the car: Citroen C4, 5-door hatchback

The Citroen C4 is a 5-door hatchback. In the fitting photo, the car has a grille with chrome chevrons and large headlights, and the roof has no roof rails.

The Delta is designed for cars without factory roof rails, which is why the bars fit directly onto the roof, with the vehicle-specific fitting kit. Before fitting, check whether your car's roof has factory rails, because the fitting differs.

What we fitted on this Citroen C4

Menabo Delta Black roof bars are made of black aluminium, 1,190 mm long, 30 mm high and 60 mm wide. They have a 20 mm T-track on top, where accessories attach with T-bolt fittings. The set weighs 5.2 kg, and the maximum load is 50 kg. The pack includes 2 roof bars, 4 feet, 4 locks with keys and the Allen key.
