The Curt Roof-Mount Cargo Basket # C18115 does not come with the roof rack crossbars that it requires for mounting on a vehicle like your 2001 VW Passat. This particular roof basket requires that the two crossbars have one of three specific crossbar spreads: 15-, 22- or 29-inches apart measured at the centers of the two bars. Similarly, cargo basket # TH859XT from Thule is versatile enough to fit most crossbar spreads and configurations so no worries.
