I am trying to find somewhere that sells spare parts for Thule Tour roof bar mounted cycle racks. I'm looking for replacement wheel straps and end caps as over time various bits have either broken or disappeared. Despite trawling through loads of websites selling Thule stuff Ican't seem to find antone who sells these spares.

Does anyone know of anywhere that sells such things and help me stop having to rely on various bits of bungee cord to keep my bikes on the roof of my car?

Believe it or not Halfords are pretty helpful in this dept. Dont expect them to source them overnight but they will order them for you. Go in person to your local store, the spare parts desk, be nice. Helped me a couple of times, once did it for free.

It's probably best to just phone one of the bigger Thule dealers:
http://www.roofracks.co.uk
or
http://www.roofbox.co.uk

Or what he just said ^^^^

Cheers for the advice. Think I might try Thule first then Halfords.
