Last time I looked , MB bars were Thule ones .

You can purchase Thule rails in a variety of lengths , and can even cut to length if your car is a different width from front to back .

I bought my Thule bars back when I ran a W123 estate , also used them with my W124 estates , bought a different foot pack to use with my W201's and finally bought longer rails to use on my W126 ( the 'gutterless' feet meant for the W201 work fine despite the car having gutters ) . My Thule accessories have served me well over 15+ years and numerous vehicles .
