Will Thule Cargo Box Fit on a 2018 Acura MDX Mounted on Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars?  

Question:

Hello, Me, My husband, baby and Great Dane are making a cross country move. We have a 2018 Acura MDX that does not have factory rails installed. I measure the length of the roof 84” and it has a “shark fin” antenna towards the back that measures 3” tall. I was planning on getting the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54inch Long and Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs kit as well as this Thule cargo box. Can you please let me know if these items are compatible together and with my car. I see that they will fit a 2016 MDX but just want to make sure.

Helpful Expert Reply:

For the 2018 Acura MDX without factory roof rails I recommend the Rhino-Rack # RRVA137B-2 Vortex Aero Crossbars.

You will additionally need Rhino-Rack # RRRLKVA Legs, and # DK400 Custom Fit Kit. They come with plastic locks, but you can upgrade to Rhino Rack # RRVA-LEC4 for all-metal locks

I like the the Aero crossbars as their shape reduces wind noise and many of our customers find they look sporty enough to leave on all of the time and will allow you to use the Thule Motion XT Cargo Box # TH629706.
