Roof Mounted Cargo Basket Recommendation for 2013 Kia Soul w/ Rola Sport Series Roof Rack 59842
Question:
I am interested in a rola roof rack 59842 for a 2013 kia soul.I also need a roof basket . The thule basket doesnt seem to match up according to the instructions I downloaded because of the spread. Can you please help me in finding if the basket is compatible with the roof rack? If it is not can you direct me to one on your site that is? Thank you

Expert Reply:
Once the Rola Sport Series Roof Rack 59842 is installed on your 2013 Kia Soul it will have a crossbar spread of 31-1/8 inches, center to center. The Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, # TH859XT, works with crossbar spreads of 20- 30" so this will actually work well for you.
You could also take a look at the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket, # RMCB02. The design of this basket makes it very versatile and it will fit crossbar spreads of 25 inches to 43 inches. I have included a short video for you.
