2003 Volkswagen Jetta Roof Rack Fits: New & Legacy

Every roof rack system that fits the 2003 Volkswagen Jetta, from Rhino-Rack, Thule and Yakima, plus older racks that still fit. This Jetta comes with raised rails, bare roof or factory crossbars depending on trim, so start by matching your roof below.

Raised rails have a gap you can fit your fingers under. Bare roof means no rails or gutters at all.
