Hi. Not sure if theres studs which come through roof pre drilled holes from roof rails. or bolts going through from inside through the pre drilled holes out into the roof rails. but certain that you remove the door rubber and pull away the roof lining to get to them. maybe you will not have to pull away the roof lining to much.As some time ago I had to tighten up mine, which had losened after a heavy load put on top of my Galaxy. Hope this info helps you!.

The holes are probably already there.

 

The thread below may help......or do a search for roof rails
