Roof Rack Cargo Box and Bike Rack for 2010 Mini Cooper
Question:
I saw a thule bike rack and luggage carrier on top of a mini recently and would like to put the same arrangement on my Mini Cooper S. What do I need
asked by: Chuck K
Expert Reply:
You would need to start with a roof rack. I really like the sleek OEM appearance of the RhinoRack RS roof rack, part # RRRS721B.
According to Thule, the Force XT Sport cargo box, part # TH6356B would be a fit for your 2010 Mini Cooper, and would not interfere with the opening of the rear hatch if the box is slid as far forward in its mounts as possible. The Thule Circuit, part # TH526 fork mount bike rack or the UpRide # TH599000 wheel mount rack would be compatible with the roof rack.
