I haven't got anything on the 9N's roof *sorry*.
But, to get it straight, you're looking for a Thule - style modern ski box?

yes, I am thinking of buying this roofbox for my polo(the one on the left). The picture doesn't need to be a9n, Alex.

Hey bart
Have done a "very very quick" photoshop for you!
I know it isnt that good but just thought it would give you an idea! Looks well smart! I like the euro look, have you ever seen the passat estate that has a roof box it also has a tralior the excact same as the car, and the tralior has a roof box too! its hard to describe. Its dark blue and its beautiful!
Anyway heres my quick shop hope it helps im sure someone can do better!

I really want a Thule box, but at the moment the small Halfords box is looking more favourable...
that pshop looks funky, but the box would sit quite a bit higher as the roof rack wont sit that low...

Makes a case for painting the box in the car's colour too. Would look ace with the Polo Fun roof bars (in silver).
Maybe a Dragongreen box as well then?

polo fun roof bars? Never heared of that? I'll check in the garage this afternoon. Same paint as the car would indeed give it an edge

Well, don't know if they're for sale or anything, but check that last pic you linked to; the yellow Fun has nice silver roof bars.
Also, this should convince the haters. If there are any, btw.
OE Porsche.

thx mate
I think(not sure as I was not in Essen to check it myself) that the side bars on the roof are a part of the bodywork on the polo fun(jeep). Nut sure thought, but looking at the picture it seems that way..
anyways, I can always get them chromed
of painted in chrome(I heared that was very expencive though)

Yeah deffo need to be the same colour as the car! I knew it would sit higher but I thought low euro style
. This could be a mod in itself! "lowered roof bars"
