OEM Roof rails.

[gillie1]

Sorry if this has been covered, I searched but couldn't find anything.Picked up a 2005 Salsa coloured Vibe. Lovin' it! With all the talk on here about how to remove the roof rails and cross bars, I'm wondering if I missed something. I have the rails for sure, and ya, I could see removing them, but was I supposed to get the cross members as well?? What good are the rails without the cross members?Also, some interesting stats:In the glove box in the owner's manual was a build-date slip of paper dated July-9-04. The dealer had the car "serialized" 9-9-04, and I picked it up 3-1-05. Hard to believe that an '05 was built in July 04! Any TSB's that I should be aware of?Thanks!- G
