Roof Bar TQuick release Bolts

Post by apole » Wed Feb 25, 2009 3:37 pm

Hi there,

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a quick release bolt for the roof holes on an ATF?

I'm thinking it would be useful to mount a Omniview TV aerial on, I already have a bracket made up for it and I'd like an easy way to secure it to the roof via the existing holes, however if I could use say a bolt with a head similar to say a roof bar bolt that would be cool as it could be quickly installed and removed without any tools.

What you need is a 'male scallop knob'! Its not some fish reproductive device :), but a plastic knob with a threaded stud that will screw into the insert in the roof. I think you would need the M8 type. See below:

Components Direct are very good for this sort of thing & I don't think there is a minimum order value, but you may want to stock up on other fixings & fittings to make the most of the P&P.
