   alright guys so im thinking of getting either a roofrack or a towbar so that i can carry me bikes and stuff around as obvioulsy saxo is a pretty small car. is a tow bar easy to fit with out having to cut or weld anything?? ie will it bolt straight on.
   
   and if i was looking to get a roof rack instead can u get anything that looks a little better then a standard roof rack when im not using it. i know for example the fiat ulysee's has a rail system that when its not being used it can be pushed backwards to creat a lil spoiler.

   It depends on how the towbar bracket is constructed if it bolts straight on or not
   
   The roof bars only take seconds to clip on and off so it would probably be easier to remove them when not in use

   My old vsx had a tow bar and i removed it and put it on my vtr, the bolt holes are already in the chassis so its a straight bolt on you just gotta wire the socket into your rear lights. I did drill the holes out bigger on my furio when i put in on that because i used bigger bolts but as i already said the holes are all there for a towbar to bolt straight on, 2 holes behind the bumper and 2 down each chassis.
