Thank you! I have a 2015 LR4 on which I was able to perform this retrofit, thanks to your video. This was far more helpful than the caption-less graphics in the factory documentation.

I really wouldn't recommend using a flat bit (spade drill) for enlarging the hole in the aluminium trim, there's a high risk of cutting yourself or damaging the trim. Cone cutters or stepped drills are designed for this purpose are not expensive and are much, much safer.

I have to agree with your advice - I will use the cone cutter in future.

Very helpful video! If anyone had the same issue as me where some of the original Land Rover roof bolts were unusable/threaded etc.- you can remove the sealant around it and unbolt and replace with AYR500061

Can roof rails be fitted without discarding the channel trim?

Nice video, but a word of caution: I managed to promptly break one of the bolts because there is some black plastic sealant of some sort in the holes, partially filling the threads. If you did not have a roof rack on previously, the bolt holes may contain this gunk. I haven't solved the issue yet but I will try cleaning it out with a tap. If you google around in the forums you can find others have hit the same issue.

My LR4 2013 does not have any roof rails currently and I have a pair of standard that I'd like to install. Does installing the standard also require cutting the metal strip that runs the length of the roof gutter?

The trim strip is stainless, use a stepped cutter for enlarging the hole. If you have one, a Dremel with a cutting disc is good for cutting the strip or tidying it up after sawing.

I am sure that strip is aluminium.... fancy a bet ?

When hacksawing, use all the blade......sheet metal should never be drilled using a flat wood - bit, a hole-saw should be used.

Hi - I'm hoping you (or anyone) can help. We have got a short rail with the bars but we have no instructions and I can't find any online. We can't find any bungs in the trim to fit the rail to (I assume thats what we are meant to do?). Are we supposed to drill these or does the short rail fit in place of the trim? The screws in the car are 10mm so I guess they don't fit through them? Although in your video they look different on top to ours?

Any idea how to lift up the front cap on the extended rails once you have them installed? My disco came with the long rails and I need to get the front cap off to slide some cross bars in.

You should not need to remove the end caps to slide the cross bars in - they drop in from the top ?

I have huge problem with mine - the roof glass was apparently replaced in the past, and whoever did it - did the poor job, as it is not centered! Now one of the roof railings does not fit in the groove... I wonder if there is a way to fix this without removing the roof glass (which is very $ labour intensive)

Hi did you sort this ? i can send you a link to the original fitting instructions.... google "LAnd Rover Topics" then go to user information - then select vehicle - then go to accessory fitting and you will find it there. Sorry for delay i missed your email when i was in china a couple of weeks back.

Can you help to explain me a bit. Some photo would be very nice. Thanks a lot. (page 120 in this brochure www.landrover.com/Images/Land-Rover-Discovery-Brochure-1L4621810CC0BXXEN01P_tcm281-407416.pdf

Who is your camera man? He is terrible... There are so many parts of this video that he is just recording the window instead of what's happening on the roof. And.... this is a Roof Railing System not a Roof Rack / Cross Bar.
