Alternate Mounting Kit for Mercedes-Benz Rooftop Cargo Box for Use on Jeep Cherokee
Question:
Hi. I have a Mercedes roof box that is normally mounted with slide plates that fit on the cross bar. Is there a cross bar I can use on my Jeep Cherokee that will adapt to the Mercedes box? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
We do not have roof racks with the OEM-type parts for your Mercedes-Benz rooftop cargo box but we do offer a range of mounting kits for many brands of such cargo carriers and we can help you select mounting hardware that will work on your Jeep Cherokee's factory roof rack bars.
You can use a kit such as the Thule part # TH05603 that you referenced. Be sure to use silicone sealant # LT37467 to close up any extra holes in the box created from using the new hardware.
