asked by: Mike
Expert Reply:
As far as physically fitting the factory crossbars on your 2017 Mini Countryman you can use any of the Thule or Yakima boxes. No adapters needed. But you will want to be cautious if you want a box that will not interfere with the rear hatch.
For example one of the shortest Thule boxes is # TH614. On this box it measures slightly under 42-5/8 inches from the center of the rear attachment point to the back of the box. What that means is that you will need to have 42-5/8 inches or more from the center of the rear crossbar to the nearest point of the opened hatch. If you can tell me that distance I can make recommendations for boxes that will fit.
I have linked the Thule and Yakima boxes for you.
