Hello, I am new to the Forum as a member, but I have been benefitting enormously from the threads for many years as a reader. I have a 1992 T4 Westfalia California (AAB 2.4), originally from Germany, imported to Spain in about 1997 and then with one family until I bought it in 2014. It has done 392000KM, is on a second engine, twice-reconditioned gearbox and I have spent more money than is sensible keeping it on the road this last decade.
It is, as of this year, on UK plates.

Currently, I am weighing up drilling holes in the roof to mount roof bars, which in a worst case scenario would be a lot of wet pain for the relatively few hours of gain when I would actually have a canoe, SUP or something up there.
 
Some did come with the roof pre-drilled for roof bars. Grommets added to blank the holes.
May be worth digging around for more info.

Someone obviously mistreated the van at some stage. No way should an AAB unit need replacement at such a low mileage.
 
Here’s what I had on a previous unit. These ally sections used T bolts to mount rails.
