Thule Feet Numbers for RS6 Sedan

I’m trying to figure out how to add a roof rack and I can’t find this info anywhere.

Does anyone know which feet work with a roof rack. Are they the same as a C5 A6/S6? Any help would be appreciated (also if anyone has a set sitting around I’d be interested).

I recently bought some Thule Wingbar Edge 86 rails and feet.
I spoke with Thule customer service who were helpful.

If this is what you mean I can find the product codes as I kept the boxes.

*The Porsche box was second hand, a bargain, based on a Thule Excellence XT, the best looking roof box I've seen, and too wide to fit between the rails feet.

I'll sell the roof box this month.

One of the Thule sites was helpful, maybe the US one. Customer service were helpful also.
If my car looks like what you're after I'll dig out the codes for you.
I'm keeping my rails & feet.
Still on the hunt for a roof box I don't hate.

I also bought protective clear sheet to protect the paint from the feet.

I appreciate all of the quick replies. I do have a sedan, not an avant. I'm trying to figure out this info, it looks like everything above is for the avant.

Thanks!

Also I've used the Inno Wedge 660 for many years on my allroad and loved that box. It's low and sleek and very well made. Holds skis up to 193cm comfortably aS WELL.

For posterity, searching, etc I’ve figured this out.

First, there is a legacy search for Thule for everything they’ve made and most of it still exists on eBay:

https://fitguide.thule.net/

Second, here’s the RS6 sedan info:

For Traverse 480R
WingBar EVO 7112
Square Bar 7122
AeroBlade ARB47
Fit Kit 1039
AirScreen 870202

Crossbar Max Bar Spread 27.5”
Crossbar Max Weight 165#

This was super hard for me to figure out, so I hope this helps someone else.
