HI, did you have any luck with the difference between the Mercedes vito, I think it's a 973-14 kit as to the Elgrand 973-18 kit as I'm having the same problem, can't get an 18 any where.
Regards, Neil
About 2 years or so ago I bought a Thule 973 bike rack second hand on e-bay.
The fitting kit that came with it was for I think a Mercedes Vito and not the 18 fitting kit that is required for an Elgrand.
At the time there were plenty of 18 fitting kits available but not needing to use it I put off buying one.
Anyway it now seems that the Thule 973 bike rack has been discontinued and I cant seem to find a 18 fitting kit anywhere.
Looking at the fitting kit that I have and comparing it with pictures of the 18 kit on the internet it looks like the one i have has got the same angle bend but the legs are longer so I think that I could cut it down slightly to make it work.
What I am hoping is that someone is coming might have a 18 fitting kit that they could bring along for me to use as a template to mark my fitting kit out as I don't want to guess if I can help it and cut too short.

Hi Neil, sorry no luck yet, was hoping to see a 18 kit in the flesh so I could use it as a template side by side with the fitting kit that I have but if not will just have to take a flyer and cut mine down using pictures form the internet as a guide.

Unfortunately, we may only be able to make the afternoon/early evening on the Saturday now as Charlotte is playing her violin in a concert on the Sunday and needs to be back for setting up. Still be good to pop along and meet up with everyone.
 
Hope those side steps will be fully fitted by then
