Does anyone know how to remove the roof rails on a sportwagon?

The paints flaking off so im going to get them sand blasted and sprayed aluminium silver.

There are 2 covers at each end of each rail but i cant see how they come off. I saw an Accord with one missing the other day and it looked like it just clipped on, is mine the same and i take it there are bolts below it?

You just need to wedge off the front and rear curved cover section...( use a flathead on the inside of the rail at the seam.. they just have minor poppers holding them on). once you have those off you will see the bolts to unscrew from the roof.. then you allen key them apart once they are off.

I'm in the same boat.. i am going to re do in blk but colour coding will be nice on yours !

Brilliant!

thanks, i had some nasty thoughts of having to pull down the roof lining inside.

Good luck with yours too.
