Hi
Looking for some roof bars for my new mg4 trophy
So I can put a roof box on
Anyone know where the best place is
Thanks.

The MG4 is not (yet) rated for any roof load? (That doesn't mean it can't, just that doing so is against Type approval and so may give insurance problems in the event of an incident).

Check out this old thread, Carrying a Load on the Roof , in which the insurance issues @siteguru mentions are thrashed out, and a Thule set of bars is illustrated.

Just adding this to this thread (despite it not being relevant to OP) the XPower IS rated for roof loading. Might help some future readers.

Completly agree, our EU counter parts use : Thule WingBar Evo Silver Roof Bars for MG MG4 2022 - 2023 (7113 + 7105 + 145342) = no idea if they fit - but if the car can withstand 1800kg+ impact load on its roof in an accident 50-100kg on the roof can't be a problem via insurance, when ever I've rang up in the distant past they didn't have a clue, i think direct line (20 years ago?) said it was fine as this was an accessory?
