Rightline Gear Sport 2 bag # RL100S20 was meant to sit on the roof of a vehicle. In order to secure it to the roof on a vehicle that does not have any sort of roof rack you will need to route the straps through the interior of the vehicle. Just connect the bag's straps to the naked roof straps, and feed them through your vehicle's open car doors. Cinch the straps tight to secure the bag in place. view full answer...

As long as the Cargo Bag is securely attached to both the front and rear crossbars, installing the bag as you mentioned is perfectly acceptable.
Before placing the bag on your roof, make sure that the underside of the bag and the roof are perfectly clean and free of dirt and grit to prevent scratching. Applying a good coat of quality car wax to the roof will also help protect your roof. Rightline also offers a skid-proof protective mat, part # RL100650 which would provide some protection... view full answer...

On any cargo bag that fits a naked roof, such as the Rightline Ace, # RL100A20, you would have to run all of the straps through the one set of doors on your 2014 Jeep Wrangler Sport. There is no other way that you could attach it to the vehicle roof.
Although you may be able to use the car clips, # RL100600, and secure the straps to rain gutters (if applicable on your Jeep model).
The only other option is to install a roof rack. Yakima has a rack option that is the most economical made... view full answer...

The Thule OutBound Roof Bag, part # TH868, needs to be attached to a roof rack. Since your 2007 Ford Focus 4-door hatchback does not have a factory rack, you will first need to install one.
If your Focus currently has a bare roof, I would recommend the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack, part # RRVA118B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK005. Then you will be able to attach the Rola Platypus Roof Bag, part # 59100.
Another option would be to use a roof cargo bag that does not require a roof rack. Checkout the Rightline... view full answer...

The Thule Outbound Roof Mounted Cargo Bag is primarily designed to rest directly on the vehicle roof.

As long as your roof has the room for two of these Advantage Cargo Bags, part # HE3021, and your roof has the carrying capacity to hold the two bags with luggage in them then you should be able to put two of these bags on the roof rack of your Venture.

There really isn't a stated maximum speed that you should adhere to when the Thule Interstate Roof Cargo Bag, # TH869, is on the roof of your 2009 Acura MDX.

Just a couple of things to keep in mind. This bag can not be used on a vehicle without raised crossbars or side rails. When traveling long distances,... view full answer...

The Thule Roof Bag, part # TH868 is designed to attach to sidebars, crossbars, or a cargo basket on the roof of your vehicle. If the bag will be touching your roof, I suggest a Non-Skid Roof Protection Pad # RL100650.

I have a few recommendations for you, however, there is a risk of any type of fabric or plastic material being damaged on a cargo carrier with vehicles that have exhaust pipes exiting straight back like your 2007 Nissan Murano.
If a hitch mounted cargo carrier option works best for your needs, I recommend choosing a cargo carrier that offers the most clearance between the exhaust tips and the carrier. The Pro Series 24 x 60 Cargo Carrier, # 63153, that you referenced will offer approximately... view full answer...
It is possible to use the Thule Interstate Roof Rack Cargo Bag, # TH869, on your 2010 Mercedes GLK with just the side rails that run front to back, but not recommended. Crossbars that run side to side on top of the vehicle prevent the bag from sliding forward and backward on the roof during acceleration and braking. You would want the bag to be stationary to prevent it from damaging the roof.
You can add cross bars to your GLK in order to use a cargo bag. You would need Thule Evo Raised... view full answer...
From the sound of your question, it sounds like you are using a cargo bag like the Rightline Range 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag - Water Resistant - 15 cu ft # RL100R20 to your crossbars of your Volvo XC60. As far as guidance about the crossbar spread, the best route is to use the overall length of the bag as a reference. For example, if the bag is 40 inches long, I recommend 41 inches of crossbar spread.
From the looks of your photo, it is possible that you have fixed mounting points on your rails.... view full answer...
