About the car: Peugeot 208 first generation, 2015 facelift
The Peugeot 208 has a 3-door or 5-door hatchback body, on the PSA PF1 platform. European production ran from March 2012 to August 2019, and the 5-door version appeared in June 2012. The first generation, developed under the code name A9, received a facelift in June 2015.
Having no roof rails, the 208 uses a dedicated kit to fit the roof bars on the body. You can then fit roof boxes, ski racks or bike racks on the roof bars. The second generation, launched in 2019, has a different roof bar kit, so the roof bar kit is not the same for both generations.
What we fitted on this Peugeot 208
The Menabo Tema Aluminium roof bars for Peugeot 208, 5-door, 2015-2019 model have an oval, aerodynamic profile, with the metal parts treated against corrosion. The bars are 1120 mm long, 30 mm high and 48 mm wide. In the pack you will find 4 fixing systems, 4 anti-theft locks with keys and an Allen key.

The 20 mm channel on the top side lets you fix accessories with the T-track system, and if the accessory has no T-track fixing, you can use the U-bolt fixing on the outside of the bar. The instruction manual is included in the box. To compare the types of accessories, read 8 reasons why roof bars are worth buying.
