The O-Neul-Car Incheon Installation Process

Installing OEM roof racks on a Kia Seltos is a precise process that requires attention to detail, especially concerning structural integrity and waterproofing. We use only genuine Kia Mobis parts, ordered specifically for your Seltos's VIN to ensure perfect compatibility and color matching.

Installation process:

1. Initial Inspection and Trim Removal: We begin by carefully inspecting your Seltos's roof and meticulously removing the existing roof molding where the rack will be installed. This step requires a skilled hand to avoid any damage to the vehicle's paint or bodywork.
2. Hole Fabrication and Waterproofing: Once the molding is removed, we precisely create the necessary mounting points for the roof rack. Crucially, we apply specialized waterproof sealant to all mounting areas. This step is vital to prevent any water leaks into the cabin, a common issue with improper installations.
3. OEM Roof Rack Mounting: The genuine Kia Seltos roof rack is then carefully positioned and securely fastened using factory-specified bolts and nuts. We pay close attention to the alignment and fit, especially along the Seltos's distinctive rear roofline, to achieve that signature factory look.
4. Final Inspection: After installation, a thorough inspection is conducted to ensure the roof rack is firmly attached, with no wobbling or gaps. We check all connection points and confirm the overall stability and aesthetic integration with your Seltos.

This meticulous approach ensures that your Seltos not only looks like it came from the factory with roof racks but also performs reliably and safely for all your adventures. The result is a clean, factory-integrated look that enhances both the utility and the resale value of your vehicle.
