    answer to an earlier question, yes the milencos aeros off the D4 (post 2015 D4) fit the D5

    The 135 should fit perfectly as well if correct footing is used!

    How were the 135's?

    I've just ordered a Wingbar Evo kit and the Thule recommended size for the D5 is 135cm.

    Really hope they don't stick out too much, the 127cm look just right.

    Are you in a hurry to get some, as I might well have mine for sale at the end of the month, as I will be parting company with my D5.

    Unfortunately I need them by this weekend, so I can buy and test out a roof box before going away next week.

    I've ordered both the Wingbar Edge and Wingbar Evo kits which should come tomorrow. If the Edge fit well and allow the roofbox to clear the sharkfin then I'll keep those, otherwise I'll keep the Evo's which seem to sit a little higher off the roof based on photos.

    Worst case if I'm really not happy with either then I'll have to pick up some LR ones early next week.

    Well the Wingbar Edge are ok, the rear bar could do with being a little shorter for long loads as the furthest back it will mount is about 5cm in front of the LR bar position.

    I did find they give an annoying and quite loud whistle between 30-50mph - so much for their quietest bar ever. Happy to say that once the roof back was attached that has disappeared.
