Hi guys! I have just ordered a new shape 2022 Sportage Launch Eddition and wonder if the roof rails are a 'standard' design? I've not owned a car with fitted side rails, so have no experience with this style! I have been given a pair of bars, which are designed to fit with this style of side rail, are they likely to fit, or do I need Kia bars? Thanks 😁

It maybe a case of just buying the correct feet for your bars.

I know when I switched from Stonic To Niro for my Whispbar through bars: Whispbar 120cm I had to get new feet.

Thanks! Do I need feet for my bars, when the vehicle has fitted rails? I thought they just 'gripped' the rails 🤔

Your bars have feet that grip the roof rails. The style of the roof rails can vary, so require a different style of feet to grip the rails. Also distance between rails can vary.
Might take a while for feet to actually come out to fit. But that will depend on just which bars you have.

Cheers again. I don't have the car yet, but do have these bars - I'll see if they marry-up when the car arrives! If not, then I'll be back on 😀
