Will the Thule Motion XT Roof Cargo Box Fit Roof Rack with 1 Inch Clearance to Roof

Question

Question:

Im looking to purchase the Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars for my 2018 Toyota Highlander Item # RRRVP37. The bars sit pretty low, providing only 1inch of clearance. Will that be enough space for the clamps in this box?

I went out and measured an individual PowerClick Clamp on one of the Rhino-Rack crossbars and while it will be a close fit, the clamps are under 1" even when opened so you won't have any clearance issues fitting the Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH629806 with the Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack # RRRVP37 on your 2018 Toyota Highlander.
