Pontiac Vibe Roof Rack Removal
- 1). Pry up the black plastic rack housings located on the top of the Vibe near the middle, using a flat-head screwdriver. Pop each one off slowly and place it to the side.
- 2). Detach the four Torx screws (two on each rail) that anchor the rack to the Vibe, using a #30 Torx screwdriver.
- 3). Lift the back end of one of the rails and tap on the front end (where you just removed the screws) with the rubber mallet. It may take some effort to detach the rail from the roof.
- 4). Lift the rail straight up to pop it completely off the Vibe's roof. Remove the white clips from the roof of the Vibe. Store all of the roof rack parts in a safe location.
