Considering factory vs. Rola aftermarket roof cross bars. Will VW factory bars accept other brands of aftermarket accessories in the T-slot? Factory is sleeker looking, but want functional as well. Rola/Yakima are sportier (maybe more wind noise/ louder???). I would carry paddlboard mostly. What are your experiences? Thanks

You can buy t slot adapter. Oem is made by Thule

Do these T-slot rails accumulate water anywhere in/on the chassis that one should be aware of?

Shouldn’t. The rack comes with a rubber cover you can put in( its a pain)

I’m sure any moisture falls through the roof rack mount to the bar and falls out through there.
