hi all
i'm in need of 2 roof plugs (cover screws where roof bars attach i guess). pic for clarification in case my description is nonsense, only showing one!) i'm a bit concerned about possible water ingression.
cheers.....john

There is no danger of a leak, as those strips sit on top of the metal roof. Anyway, I have two of those.

thanks gatos for getting back to me

as i'm safe from water getting in i'll happily live without the studs. the car is rather scruffy so they aren't to important.

thanks for the reassurance ...... john

I removed my V40 roof rails and needed 4 of these, fortunately they are identical on the S40 aswell so I took them off my old S40. So anyone looking for some in future, the S40 and V40 roof plugs are identical.
