roofrack part

[devon california]

Hi all,

I have a vw roofrack (logo). The metal plate at the bottom of the roofrack foot which fits into the slot on the roof has lost its thread. As a result i cannot tighten the allen key bolt which secures the roofrack.
I have spoken to vw but unsure if part is avail. Can anyone help to identify a part no. Ive been into a couple of garages but not had any joy.

Worst case is rethreading but unsure if next size bolt will fit.

Thanks in advance
Paul

Can't help with part number. But might be able to modify something from this site to replace the offending part.

Thanks Andy, theres some useful parts on that site. Ive bookmarked it as always end up looking for bits to fix something.
Think may have located part on banwy but site says now out of stock. Waiting to hear from them.

Thanks again
