Thule T-track aerobar roof box adapters for BMW own-brand bars no. 696-4

These adapters are suitable for the following 'T-track' aerobars:

• All BMW
• Mercedes-Benz Lean-Line
• Some Renault

For other aerobar brands, including all the brands we sell, check out the Thule T-track aerobar roof box adapters no. 697-4.

These T-track bolts have a 24mm x 30mm base and are 55mm long. You slide two T-track bolts into the front bar and two into the rear bar, providing one fixing at each corner of the roof box.

The whole pack contents is designed for use with Thule's Atlantis, Dynamic, Excellence, Pacific, and Spirit ranges - boxes from other manufacturers will only need the 4 x T-track bolts and the 4 x butterfly nuts.

Please note that if you buy a Thule box from us, Thule's Power-Click and Power-Grip fittings open wide enough to go around all the aerobars we sell - CRUZ, Atera, Thule and Whispbar - so you don't need a set of T-track adapters. However, our opinion is that these adapters provide a visually much neater solution (you can't see them!) than putting clamps around aluminium aerobars and, because they replace the slightly bulky fittings, they also create more useable space in the box.

Delivery FAQs

When will my order arrive?
There are no deliveries on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays, except for postable items where Royal Mail has a Saturday delivery. Express Delivery orders placed on a Friday (before 1pm) should be delivered on the Monday or Tuesday, Express Delivery orders placed on a Saturday or Sunday should be delivered on the Tuesday or Wednesday. The arrangements for Very Heavy Items are different and are shown above.

What about Next Working Day delivery?
Most Express delivery orders will arrive on the next working day, if the order is placed before the cut-off time (see above). Some will arrive on the second working day if there has been a "split-delivery". So-called “split deliveries” happen when the couriers do not have enough trailer space for everything that should be moved around the UK, so they will load what they can and leave the rest for the next trailer.

Is my delivery day guaranteed?
No retailer or courier company can ever "guarantee" a Next Working Day delivery. As well as split deliveries, all courier companies occasionally have the same transport problems as can happen to everyone else, including snow blocked roads, closed roads, traffic jams, mechanical breakdown, an inability to find the delivery address, or to gain access to it if, for example, it's in a block of flats. We work with some of the best couriers in the business, and overall they provide an outstanding service.

Do I need to be at home?
We are very flexible with our deliveries and will aim to deliver to an address which suits you – this does not need to be your home address. Goods can usually be left without signature - we prefer this with roof boxes. There's a "Special Delivery Instructions" box in the checkout area where we'll ask you to choose a typical instruction and then amend it to suit your particular requirements.
