Will Thule Quick Grip Mounts Fit in the Thule Evolution 2100 Cargo Box
Question:
Hi, I have a Thule Evolution 2100 I purchased back in 2005. It has the U-bolt fasteneing system to attach to the roof rack. Is it possible to remove the U-Bolt locking mechanism and replace it with the the new Quick Grip claw type attachment I see on the newer models?

Expert Reply:
If you are willing to make modifications to your Evolution cargo box, you could use the Quick Grip mounts, # TH05738. You would also need the proper cradles, # TH8523387001. There is no kit available to retro fit older boxes with these mounts. It would require some at home work to modify the box to accept the mounts.
