Revo-Rack is a unique design of Mercedes Benz SLK R171 Luggage Rack that eliminates the risk of paint damage, caused by steel clamps or straps on the fragile boot/trunk lid edges. Revo-Rack can be fitted in under a minute.
We have been manufacturing the Revo-Rack since 2016 with the choice of two finishes black or PA (polished anodised) which creates a chrome like shine. We only sell direct over the web.
We designed Revo-Rack in 2015. The issue with fitting a conventional metal clamp based luggage rack to a modern convertible is the small panel gap - there is no room for a metal clamp.
Revo-Rack attaches to your R171 SLK using vacuum cup technology, these are not suction cups. Suction is what creates vacuum. Vacuum is the total absence of air whereas suction is the process done to achieve a vacuum. The grey buttons on the side of the cups pump out the air creating a huge, securing force.
In 2015 Revo-Rack was independently certified by TUV Italy part of the global TUV testing and certification business. It went through speed, braking and force tests, to ISO 11154:2006 Revo-Rack passed all these tests and is certified to carry 20kg/45lbs. Since 2016 we have sold over 10,000 Revo-Racks and never had a failure.

The Mercedes Benz SLK R171 Luggage Rack Evolved ? Boot-bag
The innovative boot-bag also fits all SLK models, its a great alternative to the traditional Mercedes Benz SLK luggage rack. Boot-bag has been manufactured in the UK by the boot-bag group since 2008 with over 25,000 sold worldwide. The straps simply loop around your SLK's boot lid negating the need for a rack. If you buy a car luggage rack you still need to purchase a waterproof luggage bag. Boot-bag does both jobs for half the cost of a rack alone.
