    Default '94 540i...can I install a roof rack?

    It might be a silly question but..is it possible to install a roof rack on a 94 540i? If yes, any recommendations?

    Thanks!

    You can find Thule brand car racks at most specialty bicycle or camping store. Here's some information from REI.

    I've got a Yakima rack with 2 King cobras and a rocketbox. There are 2 options for the e34.
    Just go to their website and it will tell you exactly what you need. Here is a pic with my bike on.

    Thule and Yakima are modular design... meaning all you need is the right footpack to install on any car you have... bars and accessories fits all car.

    Yakima has 2 different designs. The foot packs which are for a specific car and the Q towers which fit any car. All you need for the Q towers to fit are specific clips. If you ever want to use the rack on a different car all you need to buy are the clips which are fairly cheap.
