Best Locking Roof Mounted Cargo Baskets
Question:
Do you carry any products to keep roof basket C18115-117 secure to the rack cross bars secure as in locks or thief-proof?

Expert Reply:
I do have similar roof mounted cargo baskets that can be locked to the vehicle's roof rack but the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket part # C18115-117 does not have this feature because it is more of any entry level, economy roof basket. If you must have one that can be locked to the vehicle's roof rack then I recommend taking a look at the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT-8591XT with the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders part # TH450400 or the Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket part # Y07070-74 with the Yakima Locking Mount Brackets with SKS Cores for LoadWarrior and MegaWarrior part # Y07064.
These baskets are both similarly sized and as mentioned have the ability to be locked to the vehicle's roof rack. Generally speaking, most entry level, economy roof mount cargo baskets are not going to be able to be locked to the vehicle's roof rack, at least without some ingenuity.
I have attached review videos for you as well.
