Hello everyone,
"On my vehicle, the roof was repainted due to stone chips. To do this, I had to remove the roof rails. What is the correct torque (in Nm) for tightening the nuts that hold the roof rails in place? I want to avoid damaging the newly painted roof by tightening them too much."

Thank you and best regards.

M8 --> Estimated to be around 20-25 Nm. It should be quite tight.
