Ohh nice, does that still have the 2 "lugs" on the footings that locate into the Audi roof rails?

I'm just paranoid that if I dont get them and I get a generic set of bars i'd be constantly worried my bikes gonna cone crashing down, destroy the bike & wreck my car!

No they have a rubber clamp. I just made sure the rails and clamp were really clean and fitted per the instructions. I've put the rails on and off twice now and no issues at all with marking or slipping.

Just realised a major flaw in my plan to have aero bars, my existing roof box & Thule bike rack mounting brackets only have an internal diameter of about 4cm (i.e 4cm between each hole in the roof box & bracket for the bike rack). So if I went aero I would have to buy a new roof box, or wider brackets & drill out the box, same on the bike rack :-(
