Will they fit?
Can anyone tell of if the pug or fiat roof bars fit the citroen c8?

Have a look at Thule's fit guide http://www.thule.co.uk/appguide/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; You might even find some other models that take the same bars. Xantias use the same roofbars as the Vectra B and Saab 9000/GM900 for example.

Thanks for that, good idea.
On the site it lists two types, one for use with t-tracks. What are these t-tracks?

I think T-Tracks are the flush "gutter rails" that the Xantia Estate has. IIRC there's a flap you slide along to reveal a mounting point.

Re: Will they fit?
Thanks for that. It appears that mine does not have T tracks. (Just to confirm this, does anyone have a picture of the t-track to compare it to or a link of a piccy of it. I've searched all over but cant find anything. Doesnt really help that i'm not sure what im looking for though
).
Any idea where i can get them form and roughly how much they cost?
Also, do the standard roof bars, the rather nice looking ones, need these t tracks?

i dont have a photo but the track is a flush chanel down the length of both sides of the roof, with an upside down shaped slot the length of the flush chanell,
at each end of both of the chanels there is a flap which hinges upwards to alow the roof bar feet ( shaped ) to be located into the T slots,
