FS - Factory Roof Rack Bars/Running Boards 2002 G500

I have a factory Mercedes gutter mounted roof bar system. Great for roof Thule pod and/or ski/bike system. I have to be honest, I think these are the European version, ... but I am very unsure. What I do know is that the 2 years I have had them in use they have worked perfectly. I have the key for the lock and all the mounting hardware.

I have upgraded to a more robust FrontRunner rack system.

Also I have the stock Running Boards which I replaced with the Rockmeister sliders. Not sure how much in demand these are ... but they look expensive to replace if perhaps you have one damaged? Who knows.

Here are some pictures .... feel free to hit me up if you have any questions or would like to see any additional pictures and talk price.

Thanks!

Cross Bars Sold.

Need to get rid of these running boards ... they are big and heavy. I wish I had a massive garage. In the next life for sure.

F Yeah. And the screws/hardware,etc. I was very careful when taking them off.

PM me and we can work something out if you are interested ... since I own you anyway.

I will take pics of the plastic end caps in the next 15min or so.

Re: FS - Factory Roof Rack Bars/Running Boards 2002 G500

Just a friendly reminder that I still have the running boards.

I have to say they are in good shape and polished up well. I captured all the hardware too ... plastic ends, bolts, screws, etc

Note: They are fairly heavy (and obvioulsy long), and will cost a good chunk of $$ to ship ... so if you are on the west coast perhaps I can deliver if distance is reasonable.

Anyone going to Oregon event perhaps interested? I am not looking to make a giant return on these ... just want to keep my garage streamlined since I do not have ton of room for storage.

Thanks again.

Sorry Scott ... they have been sold here locally.

You may want to contact the gentlemen at clubgwagen.com (mike) and/or g-wagenacccesories (karl) ... they may have access to used (good condition) running boards.

You may want to acquire a set of sliders just from a cost and longevity perspective. I went that route and they (the rock sliders) are very functional for every day use (I don't get my pants dirty getting in and out of my vehicle anymore!) as well as the the above and beyond protection you give your vehicle when off road. Super easy install and never have to worry about certain types of damage again ...

Just an idea. Thanks for reaching out though ...

Re: FS - Factory Roof Rack Bars/Running Boards 2002 G500

Thanks anyways, Ill have to check with Mike and Karl though. I dont think I like the look of the sliders too much though I am thinking either original style or all black aftermarket ones but I dont want to aftermarket the whole thing so Im thinking ill just stick with the oems
thanks again for your help

FYI a decent set of running boards (used ones) will be north of $1200. They retail for $3750 ish new for a pair.

Sliders will be < $1k delivered and they will help protect your vehicle.

Good luck.

Here is a picture of the Rockmeister rock slider on a 2002 G-wagen

You can find those at http://www.g-wagenaccessories.com

BTW due to its modular design you can still mount the factory running boards using our specialty RM-brackets.

Please contact me if you are still looking for a clean set of OEM running boards karl@g-wagenaccessories.com
