Hey Marcos,
Try to get some Hot VW or VW Trends or Volks World magazines. There are several suppliers that sell aftermarket wood slat racks. Most ship international. Good Luck

Marcos, you can get them fairly cheap now too. I think around $150 here in the U.S. Flat 4 sells a woodslat rack that is bolt together for easy shipping that resembles the 10 slat. I myself prefer the og early 6 or 9 slats myself.

Guys, I think he's looking to reproduce them and he wants the pictures and measurements of them so he has an idea.

Yes Dominic, that's the idea, becouse of the devaluation of the money in Argentina the last year, now to me spend 150 dolars is like you spend 450 dolars, and I think that I can make a Roof Rack here for 60 dolars more or less.
But I don¦t know yet if I will have a good result with this. But I will Try

Regards Marcos, and thanks to answer

I'll take a picture of mine and send it to you with the measurements. Email me for the information. Hey, if you reproduce them, you better give me a great deal on one, OK?
