Bicycle Rack (archive)

Ok, I'm bringing this up again. I spent some time on Friday with the Parts Manager at a nearby dealership. We searched all of his databases and came up empty in looking for an available roof rack for the E-31.

1) Could any of our European brethren take some time to search for me on the Continent? I'd be happy to compensate you reasonably for your efforts and of course will pay shipping, handling, etc. if you do find one.

2) Anyone have a rack they're willing to sell? I'm looking for the Touring/Mountain Bike hardware (not the Racing Bike hardware), but really just need the roof-mount rails.

3) Any suggestions on where else to look for the OEM rack?

Note: I'm assuming that the bicycle hardware is standard across BMW series, and only the roof rack portion is different for each model. I haven't taken the time to look through the ETK to verify, but if someone has the answer off the top of their head, please let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Stan C.
