Carrying a Roof Bag on a 2009 Cadillac SRX with a Sun Roof
Question:
Will the sliding sunroof be damaged by the storage bag when resting directly on the sun roof?
asked by: Nick
Expert Reply:
I wasn't able to find a weight capacity for your 2009 Cadillac SRX that has the sunroof but generally speaking vehicle manufacturers strongly recommend against placing anything on the glass.
The Rightline Gear Ace 2 Cargo Bag # RL100A20 also has the capability to be mounted on the crossbars of a roof rack and I did find, in the owner's manual, that your SRX can carry up to 100 pounds on an installed rack. You should verify this capacity with your owner's manual to be sure.
If you'd like to add a roof rack I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 # MPG215 as long as your SRX is not the Sport model.
If you have the Sport model instead I recommend the SportRack # SR1098.
