Hi all
Slowly fitting out my wizard and not happy with the factory roof rails so want to fit the Rhino bars I salvaged from my Mu.
Any tips or suggestions on removal of the factory rails? Bolt types?
Thanks

at a guess they are screwed from inside the head lining.
Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them

The lining is clipped in place so not that hard to get off.

I think you will find that you can remove a plastic cover on the ends that will expose the mounting bolts ie they screw into the roof frame from the outside
