    Roof rack options for Mk7/7.5 hatch

    Just wondering what people have installed and their experiences.
    If I end up getting a GTI I would like to have roof racks on permanently as I just cannot be bothered taking them on and off, storing them in the meantime etc.
    I'll be using it for a pod box that will be placed on the car as required.
    Has anyone had their roof racks on long-term? Any scratching of the pain or other concerns?

    What are peoples thoughts regarding OEM vs other brands.
    Current:
    2017 Mk2 Tiguan 162TSI, R-line, White
    2020 Mk7.5 Golf R Wagon, White
