Recommended Roof Rack and Cargo Box for 2016 Honda HR-V with Naked Roof

Question

Question:

Hi, I’m looking into purchasing roof rails and the roof box for my 2016 HRV. I’m looking for the biggest cu ft space I can get or fit on the roof. My HRV roof has no rails or bars, it’s just a flat roof. I basically need every part I can get to have this completed but I don’t know where to start. Any recommendations on rails and roof box would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

Starting with the roof rack, I highly recommend the following setup:

- Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars - Steel - 53" # TH712400
- Evo Clamp Feet # TH710501
- Fit Kit for Evo Clamp Feet # TH145175
- Thule One-Key Lock Cores # TH450400

This system is confirmed to fit your 2016 Honda HR-V that features a naked roof and it uses a clamp-style attachment to secure to the vehicle. What I really like about this particular roof rack is its through design where the crossbars extend past the feet. This allows for more crossbar space on your HR-V. The 1-1/4" wide x 7/8" tall square bars are compatible with most clamp-on accessories. It has a weight capacity of 165 pounds.

I have attached a video of these crossbars for your convenience.

Then for the roof box I recommend taking a look at the Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6357B. This low-profile box offers 16 cubic feet of storage space, features pre-installed Quick-Grip mounts that will easily attach to the above-mentioned crossbars, and a dual-side-opening lid that lets you open the box from either side of your HR-V. With the Force XT, you will be able to fully open your trunk with the cargo box attached.

We do not sell replacement foot pads for the Rhino Rack roof rack fit kit that fits your 2019 Honda Civic hatchback. Only solution would be an all new kit with the part #DK485.
