I believe they are a dealer fit.
Cheers
Arrived: SD4 Prestige Auto Coupe with Lux pack. Ipanema Sand with Black Panoramic Roof

At home and superb.

Can someone check for the screw holes on their car? Can I buy rails from Thule and install myself?

RE: Can roof rails be installed after production?
There are two plastic covers at the ends of each side of the roof, underneath there should be mounts fitted at build to all Evoques some special recessed threaded holes that roof rails will fit on to. However these care right at the ends of the roof and look to be only suitable for the front to back rails that you then mount the cross bars, bike carriers etc onto. There do not appear to be any intermediate covers along the roof of the car so you can fit the crossbars without using the front to rear side bars. Also I don't know if LR supplies something that will cover the mount once you have installed the front to back rails
A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.
