I don't know for sure. But, I'd be surprised if you couldn't. I don't have roof racks or anything like that, and it works great on my car. Just make sure you get the car clips. Rightline Gear 100600 Car Clips

You could use it on just about any car, but you probably won't be able to use the clips. In that case you have to bring the straps through the windows. I don't recommend this carrier because of the problems I had with the vinyl ripping off and the contents getting wet.

Honestly I wouldnt. I used this with and without the rack and I won't use it again...made so much noise we had to stop every few minutes. ..

Depends, It comes with brackets and a wiring harness. You can mount it easily to your roof with what comes with the kit

It does not attach directly to the roof, it is only a cross bar rack. There are no attachments for roofs without runner bars.

Racks are not required. The bag comes with straps and even instructions on how to secure with or with out a roof rack.

Yes you would, as these attach to existing roof racks only. Hope this helps!

All you will need to do is install the rack system. No modifications needed to the roof to install.

Hi Mauricio, Unfortunately we do not offer a Roof Rack for a ML-350 with a naked roof. We would recommend a trunk mounted carrier for you like the Thule Raceway PRO 9001PRO (http://www.thule.com/en-us/us/products/carriers-and-racks/bike-carriers/rear-door-mounted-bike-carriers/thule-raceway-pro-9001pro-_-1685473)

I have the Swagman rack also and it works great. The only caution on a truck or car is the amount of wind it is subjected to. On a motor home there is less wind due to the flat back.

Unless you have a roof rack or some type of bar system you will have nothing to mount it to

If you have a rack with cross bars you should be fine. You need cross bars ( ones going across roof, not just along roof line front to back ) they clasp onto the bars across the roof.

No, all necessary brackets should be included with your rack and will mount on to almost all factory roof bars. GL and enjoy your rack :)

It is probably limited to the capacity of the roof rack not the mounts. I agree with other answers

Any user will need a parallel set of roof bars installed on top of the vehicle. My own "roof basket" rack is installed on an 2002 OPEL ASTRA G with factory roof rack anchor points. At least four bolts with wide flat head are needed, so they can be installed head down and slide inside the vehicle parallel bars provided cracks. In my own bars set they have a polymer crack cover which needed customized holes. Finally flat washers and nuts were fitted tied for final positioning. I will add it is a very useful accessory and will recommend it without reserves. Just be sure that you do not exceed the rack weight capacity or cargo height and always use proper fastening equipment..

You don't need any bars or rails to use this. It's not mounted but just strapped on with straps running through inside the car along the roof. Hope that helps.

There shouldn't be a problem if you have a roof rack already install on your Audi.Very easy friendly to install.

The mounting brackets on the rack are adjustable for skinny or wide mount on roof bars. The basket also sticks up about 2" above the roof bars.

We did not need anything additional. We have a Honda Ridgeline with a roof rack.
