Will the SportRack Horizon Roof Box Fit on a 2017 Cadillac XTS

Question:

I have a 2017 XT5 Cadillac and was wondering if this roof top carrier would work on my vehicle. Do I need to purchase extra supports to attach this to the rails on my roof?

As long as you've got a roof rack system on your 2017 Cadillac XTS, you can use the SportRack Horizon # SR7016, which fits on virtually any crossbar shape. It doesn't look like the XTS came with anything other than a naked roof (no side rails or factory crossbars), so you may need the "extra supports" you mentioned if those are not present.

If you don't have a roof rack system on your vehicle, you will need to add one. For that I recommend using the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black # RR85SR. This kit uses aerodynamic crossbars that will help reduce wind noise and installs easily by clamping into the door jams on your vehicle. The SportRack Horizon cargo box will fit on these Vortex Aero cross bars, so everything will be compatible.

I've linked some installation and review videos of these parts for you to have a look at.
