Bongo Fury

Hi, I make adaptors which fit onto the 4 factory fitted points on the AFT roof, enabling standard roof bars for cars with gutters to fit the Bongo.

It seems that some of the later factory AFT's may not have these fixing points, could people with New shape AFT's please advise if this is true, and also what age their Bongo is.

Thanks in advance for any help offered!

Hi Munroman. We have a 2003 Aero (with the glass bit in the front of the roof). I think that is the most recent model of the factory fit AFT. I am 99% certain ours has fixing bolt points on it. Maybe the after market roofs that don't

All the best

Cheers David, if you might have a look next time you can that would be good.

I now state that the potential customer could check if the holes are there before ordering, and I had thought of aftermarket roofs, but it would be good to know if there were any changes over the production.

I did have one person asking how they would know if their Bongo had a raising roof....... ....... so I need to make sure I have my information very clear.

Yep.... just checked on a photo on hard drive and it does have 4 bolt fixing points.

All the best

I'm under the impression that the 4 fixing points are there to lower the 65kg roof onto the body at the factory - which would imply that all AFTs use them

I was told it was so the bongo stork had a carrying point to carry the new baby bongos home to mummy and daddy (i'll get my coat...is't been a long week!)

Mine is year 2000 new shape and definitely has the roof fixing points.
