About the car: Peugeot 308 SW, first generation (T7)

The first-generation Peugeot 308 has the internal code T7 and uses the PSA PF2 platform. The SW estate was shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2008 and went on sale in the summer of the same year. It came with 5 or 7 seats, and the SW is 4,500 mm long and 1,566 mm high. The 2011 facelift was also applied to the SW.

In the photos of this post, the car has raised, silver roof rails, and the feet of the roof bars clamp around them. The roof bars rest only on the roof rails and do not touch the roof. For this type of roof, the K39 Lion XL set clamps onto the roof rails, not directly onto the roof.

What we fitted on this Peugeot 308 SW

We fitted the the K39 Lion XL roof bars for the Peugeot 308 SW 2008-2013. They are made of aluminium, 1,350 mm long, 52 mm wide and 28 mm high, with a 20 mm T-track along the whole length for T-bolt accessories. The set includes 2 roof bars, 4 feet pre-fitted on the bars and an Allen key.

The bars are TÜV tested and tested to ISO/PAS 11154:2006 and comply with DIN 75302. They have an integrated anti-theft lock, and the product is made for a car's raised roof rails, not for a bare roof.
