will the roof lining need to be removed for holes to be made?

 

[makeitfit]

No you can do it all from above
You'll need some "Rivnuts" and those allen keys with a ball on the end :thumbs

Ebay ... type Rivnut. Loads on there .. M4 M6 M8 sizes etc .. ( relates to the bolt size your going to use .. )

They seem easy to fit .... just need to locate a simple nut tool to fit them ..

had a good look at the roof rails im taking off a Terrano LWB SE and they dont seem to be fitted from above .. no sign of any bolts etc so must be fitted from under roof lining ..

anyone know different ?

if i remember right , you have to remove the covers from the ends and the middle of the rail to expose the bolts.

Correcto mondo, then you'll need an allen key with a balled end to undo the wire that clamps the foot to the roof.
