Will the Skybox 12 work and not interfere with Toyota 2012 Highlander hatch using Yakima round cross bars and Rail grab mounts?

We have a 2009 honda pilot and 2013 ford flex with the same kind of cross bars and have had no issues.

It's better on Highlander 2012 with Yakima cross bars than the factory ones, but still slightly interferes with the hatch. Since we had the skybox already and the cost of shipping back was half the price of the item itself, we ended up drilling extra mounting holes in the Skybox instead - even that it's not recommended by Yakima and voids the warranty. So if you did not order any of those yet, it may make sense to keep looking for a different cargo box for Highlander 2012.

Unfortunately it does interfere with the Highlander hatchback "fin", but not by much. With everything as forward as possible, the fin would just touch the skybox, eventually scratching the Toyota.

I used a GM box and it fit fine. The bars are adjustable as far as the length of any box you use the main concern is width. As long as it is narrow enough to fit between the roof rails it should be no problem.

Hi Andre, you will need to see our "buyer's guide" for the recommended Thule roof rack system for your vehicle. The crossbars are separate to this product, but both are compatible. Thanks!

If you are planning to mount the carriers to your rack's crossbars, you will have an issue with too much weight. They are similar to the crossbars on my 2002 Ford Taurus Wagon. The stock hardware will mount to a crossbar that is no more then 1-7/8" wide by about 1-1/4" deep. I priced aftermarket crossbars from Thule and Yakima and found them to be over $300. I ended up making my own that locked into the rack channels on each side of the roof. I used 1" black steel water pipe and used U-Bolts for the hardware. Unless you are willing to buy some crossbars or can fabricate them yourself, these are not the racks for you.

No idea what type of crossbars you have. I have the aftermarket Yakima rack on my car with the 55' crossbars. I can def fit 3 comfortably, possibly four but that's pushing it

Hello there. We have a 2008 Toyota Sequioa and when placed properly on the top of the vehicle, it does not interfere with the back door. The mount points slide underneath the storage box to move the box forward or backward on the roof rack. Hope this helps!

I have an Acura RDX, which is similar in size to a CRV, and the SkyBox 12 works very well. However, I recommend not using the manufacturer's cross bars. They tend to be pflexible. Use a Yakima (or similar) rigid crossbars for better stability of the SkyBox.

Yes....I had a Yakima roof rack with Q towers before and i used the old bars in this Railgrab towers for my new car.. and they work realy good!!!

Should work fine. The clamps on the box are not specific to a particular style of crossbar. You will want to spread the crossbars (front and rear) as far apart as possible to provide greater stability. The biggest trick to putting the box on is getting a foothold. Our Jeep has siderails that make mounting the box easier......this box looks very slender but it carries so much cargo it's unbelievable.

You can check if your car will work on Yakima's website. I have a Honda Element with factory roof rack - zero issues. The Skybox has adjustable clamps that move to wherever your crossbars are located. I went through the selections on here - and looks like you shouldn't have a problem: http://www.yakima.com/fit/Information

Hi! You will need to have the Infinity factory crossbars before you can successfully fit this cargo box to the roof. Once those are in place you will be able to mount most of our cargo carriers! Thanks.

Hi Neal, our boxes will fit to the factory installed crossbars systems. We do have a fitment chart available to determine rear hatch clearance. If you would like a copy please contact us direct. What we would need to know is the distance from your front crossbar to the fist point of contact when the hatch is open, that measurement will allow us to determine which models will fit without interference. Thanks!

I have the eliptical crossbars on a 2013 Toyota Highlander and they fit fine. They are adjustable for the different sizes of eliptical bars. I had to tighten mine up a bit, but they go on and off easily. Hope that helps.

You will need another attachment for these two mount on factory rails. If you go on to the Yakima site they will explain what attachment you will need. I hope this helps.
