What Parts Are Needed To Install The Malone Profile Cargo Box On A 2010 Lexus RX350?
Question:
I have a Lexus 2010 RX 350. Will this cargo box fit my car? I have the bars which run the length of the car. Can I them to fasten the crossbars? Do all the attachment parts can with this cargo box? Or do I purchase them separately? Thank you

Expert Reply:
It sounds like your 2010 Lexus RX 350 has the factory raised roof rails running front to back, but you don't have crossbars. You would want to install a set of crossbars onto the roof rails in which the cargo box could then attach to. For your application the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack 50" # MPG215 would work well. This is an economical option that has the standard t-slot channel on top of the crossbars which makes it easy to install t-slot accessories like bike racks.
Now you can fit the Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black # MPG911 to the crossbars. To make sure the rear hatch of your vehicle will be able to open properly you will need to measure from the center of the rear crossbar to the line where the roof meets the rear hatch. If this distance is 21" or more then you will be able to open the rear hatch properly with this cargo box installed. .
