Does a Thule Micra K11 roofrack fit on the Starlet?

No, it does not fit! Unfortunately.


A long time ago I had a Nissan Micra year 2000, and I have kept the roof-rack for that car, a Thule Rapid System. Hoping that it would fit my next car.. I always like Thule, they are from Sweden and make great roof racks. Expensive though.

This is what the Nissan Micra K11 kit is made of:

Rapid System 750 Foot Pack

KIT 1108 that fit Nissan Micra 3/5 door, 93-

The bar is:
Thule SquareBar 760, max load 100 kg, but the rest only good for 75 kg. The length is 108 cm which is to short. The Starlet needs the 761 serie, that is 120 cm.

Here are some pictures of the kit:

Manual for the kit 1108 and Nissan Micra K11 (93-2002)
Parts that is needed, here you see the Thule 761 version that is for the Toyota Starlet EP91

Close up on the square bar Thule 760, which is 108 cm in length, to short for the Starlet.

This roof rack is for sale. If you buy the bars only on Mekonomen they cost 889 Swedish crones. Give me a decent offer and it´s yours. I´m also interested in changing the Thule squarebar 760 to an 761. Or if you have a Thule Toyota Starlet kit I can happily switch.


My Toyota Starlet 96- 3 door need:

Thule 1041 Rapid Fitting Kit  (399 kr on Mekonomen here i Sweden)

Thule SquareBar 761  = 120 cm (they cost 449 per unit, that is 889 for two)

And I think the 3-door version needs an:

SRA 774 (SRA = Short Roof Adaptor )

Foot Pack 750 or 754, I have the older 750 style. (dont need to buy)

There is nothing to attach the rear bar else, I guess?



Any opions?
