Roof box question..

We've already got a Halford Roof box (sort of middle of the range size) and need to buy new roof bars etc... to fit our new car, a Honda Accord 4 dr Hatch '99.
My question is, as Halfords don't make roof bars for the Accord, will any other bars (Thule for instance) fit? I know I could probably go to Halfords and ask but they probably wouldn't know the answer either!
I'm pretty confident they will, after all aren't all boxes the same? (?!) but just wanted to ask the wealth of knowledge here!
Cheers

Try going to the thule website, should let you input your car details, I use thule myself, and they are solid and simple to fit, easy to get alternative attachments should you change your car again ( I have 3 sets of bars from old cars hanging in the garage where I could not get new feet !) Thule are more expensive, but probably better in the end.
The box should fit any bars.I am a Mortgage Adviser

Thanks apk1. We'll take a look and also maybe pop to Halfords as I noticed they sell Thule bars there.
