Will Thule Sidekick Roof Box Fit a 2006 Subaru Impreza with Inno Square Bar Roof Rack
Question:
Will the Thule Sidekick fit my 2006 Subaru Impreza 5dr Wagon? I have after market Inno square cross bars. It seems the size will fit well, I just wonder more about the system used to mount it? Thanks for your time and help!

Expert Reply:
The Thule Sidekick Roof Mounted Cargo Carrier Box # TH78GC is compatible with roof racks that have a crossbar spread of 23-5/8" - 28". If your 2006 Subaru Impreza has the factory raised rails then you should be able to adjust the crossbars so that they are within this range so that you can use the Sidekick no problem.
If your Impreza has the naked roof then it looks like the Inno square bar setup has a crossbar spread of 22.8" which is under the range for the Sidekick so you'll need to go with a different box like the Inno Ridge # INBRA220R-BK or SportRack SkyLine XL # SR7018 instead.
