Rooftop Cargo Bag for 2015 Lexus GX 460 with Flush Rails

Question:

The aftermarket crossbar options for my GX460 are very limited and the OEM crossbars dont support the carriers Im interested in so Im looking for a compatible rooftop cargo bag. I have a stock 15 Lexus GX 460 with flush roof rails but would be willing to purchase the OEM crossbars in order to facilitate a better tie down point for the bag. Would the Thule or Yakima bags be good quality choices for my vehicle? If not those, which bags should I be looking at?

The Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag part # RL100S20 that you referenced would be a really great option for your 2015 Lexus GX 460 if it had a totally naked roof or raised rails. But with flush rails you'd end up having the strap go over the flush flush rails to the inside of the door which will raise it slightly off of the roof and not be an ideal setup as-is so I have a better solution.

If you wanted to use this bag (or something similar) your best option would be an Inno roof rack like the part # INB127, # INTR, and # INTR134 which will give you a set of crossbars that will easily allow the install of the DryTop.
