How to Use the Thule Canyon XT on a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek with Side Rails
Question:
Will this fit my car without interfering with the antenna and moonroof? Also what cross bars do I need to purchase if it will fit. Thank you :

In order to use the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT on the roof of your 2018 Subaru Crosstrek I recommend using the Thule Square Load Bar System which is composed of part # TH712400 and part # TH710401 if you have the raised factory side rails.
Unfortunately, we have not yet installed Thule basket on a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek so I would not be able to confirm whether or not it would interfere with the factory antenna though experience would leave me to believe it would not. We also do not recommend opening the moonroof with the crossbars attached but if it is indeed a moonroof that retracts into the vehicle's roof then there will not be a problem.
I have attached a review video of the basket for you as well.
