Hi all. Great forum. I just purchased a leftover 05 LE a few weeks ago AFTER reading alot of info onyour site. I've been looking for a roof top cargo box that will fit on the factory rack. Any suggestions ? I tried a Thule Evo 1600, but it was too short to mount on the racks. Help !

Lots of discussion on this.

and/or use the search function for "thule" good luck! I have a modified (to fit the stretch between bars) Thule 1800 box with an additional stiffener pop-riveted in one of the channels at the bottom of the box to increase bottom stiffness. Works great.
Post script - field tested to 160kph (in BC)

Yes, i have the Thule Mountanieer box up top. I mounted the back rack to the back holes and just drilled new holes up front in the box to match up to the front rack....took about 15 min
