Roof Rails

Does anyone know where I can get roof rails other than the WTB section?
The used FX I bought came without roof rails and I'm looking to get them re-attached.

I figure it would be expensive to order them through the dealership...is there a cheaper 3rd party store that sells these aluminum roof rails?
 
Yes, I am referring to the original aluminum roof rails that came with it.

Yea, when I took it to my local dealership for an I-Valuation, I also wanted to see how much it would take to get the roof rails installed back onto the car. I don't know why the original owner took 'em off (I don't really like the rail-less look IMHO).
I didn't think it would be a problem but he said something about how it would be difficult to install (something about the bolts being sawed off? not sure exactly what he was saying). Anyhow, I thought it would be a rather simple procedure but he made it seem like it could take a lot of labor time and told me it might not be worth it.

I called the dealership that I originally bought the vehicle from to see if they would cover the cost of the labor to re-install the roof rails (I would pay for the roof rails out of my pocket obviously) since I didn't really think it would be fair for me to pay so much just to get something simple as roof rails installed. And he said they couldn't do anything unless they actually saw the car to make a fair assessment...which really isn't worth the long drive just to see if it was possible.
 
Ooops sorry it was late and I didn't read your question correctly. But for the rails you will have to get them direct from the dealer as there are no aftermarket vendors/dealers available for them. It is a lot of labor since your interior headliner will have to removed to install the new brackets.
 
Hey Guys,

I know this thread has been dead for a lil bit, but I thought I'd resurrect it =)

Anyhow, I was just wondering if anyone has shopped at this site before:
http://www.infinitipartsusa.com/par...FX35&year=2007&catalogid=2&displayCatalogid=0

I am pretty sure that it is legit considering I saw it in the link above this forum site, but just checking. One reason is because there are many sites out there that have the same exact template type of website just like it (like discountinfinitiparts.com and parts.com) and it just seems a lil fishy.
I contacted someone at the discountinfinitiparts.com website and no one responded to my question.

Just wanted to know if the roof rails that are being sold there are the same original OEM ones that came with the FX.
 
DOH,
I didn't realize that someone had already linked something from that site on this very thread!
hahaha I guess that's what happens when a thread is that old

Anyhow, I shot them a message...hopefully they also sell the aluminimum roof rails, not just the cross bars.
 
You can also call them at 1 - 888 - 344 - 6346. Ask for Joe Tesensky, if he is available, and let him know where you saw him referenced
