Do you have an old Thule fairing that was meant for rectangular bars, but have a VW with their more aerodynamic carrier bars that you would like to use the fairing on? Well that's what I made this adapter for. This was designed for my Mk1 Tiguan's OEM bars, but these should fit other bars from around the same generation (MKV/MKVI Golf/Jetta, B6 Passat). You will need 4, and reuse the bolt and wing nut from the original mounts.
I would recommend printing in ASA for UV resistance, or ABS and paint it to protect it from UV.
5+ perimeters, 35% infill.
There is an optional bushing that goes on the square dowel that these mounts attach to on the fairing, print this out of something flexible like TPU if you want a little more purchase.
