About the car: the roof bar rack
The post does not say which car the rack was fitted to, so we do not state the make, generation or year. What matters for this rack is having roof bars on the roof, because the rack fits directly onto them.
Compatibility depends on the roof bars. According to the specifications, the K39 Orion rack is compatible with Menabo Tema, Delta, Brio, Sherman, Raven and Tiger roof bars, and with K39 K1 roof bars. Menabo Jackson, Leopard and Lince are not on the list. Before you buy, check the model of your roof bars and read our fitting guide.
