The Yakima CBX Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 Cubic Ft # Y66FR is going to add about 14-1/2" of height to your crossbars. There is a little indention where the clamps are for the box but when I reached out to my contact at Yakima he said it looks deceiving and it might reduce the height by maybe 1/8" but nothing significant.

If you need something lower than that I recommend checking out the Yakima GrandTour Lo Rooftop Cargo Box # Y46FR which has 15 Cubit Ft of storage, so about the same as the CBX, but this only sits 10" tall.

Attached are review videos on both for you to check out.
