Will the Thule Outbound Cargo Bag # TH868 Fit on a Thule Roof Rack on a 2005 Acura TL
Question:

asked by: Tom
Expert Reply:
Yes, the Thule Outbound Rooftop Cargo Bag, # TH868, will fit on the Thule roof rack on your 2005 Acura TL. This cargo bag will strap to the front and rear crossbar
This bag is 36 inches long and the crossbars on your roof should be 27-1/2 inches apart. The bag will likely overhang the crossbars some, but it will still work well to hold and protect your cargo.
You also have the option of carrying the cargo bag in a cargo basket like the Thule Canyon basket part # TH859XT. This way your cargo is not sitting directly on your roof or over hanging the crossbars, but it is still protected. The bag would fit nicely inside of the basket. I think you would love this setup.
