Best Roof Rack and Cargo Basket for a 2009 Honda Pilot

Question

Question:

Which would be the best basket for my vehicle? I have factory rail on both passenger and drivers sides goin front to back. I do not have any cross racks connecting these rails. Looking at the pictures looks like I need these rails. Please let me know and thank you for your time

In order to install a roof basket on your 2009 Honda Pilot you will need a set of crossbars like you mentioned and for that I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG216. I like this system because it has aero crossbars which will reduce both wind noise/resistance, it comes with locks for security, and it is cost effective. It also has a lifetime warranty.

Then for a cargo basket, I recommend the Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Cargo Basket # Y07070-74. This basket measures 62" long x 39" wide. It comes with a wind fairing for even more reduced wind noise/resistance and it also comes with a lifetime warranty.
