How to Install Mercedes-Benz Cargo Box with T-Slot Hardware on 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon
Question:
Good Morning, I have a Mercedes Roof Box 330 Litres, 220x60x41cms that I want to mount on my 2016 Subaru Outback - but I do not have t-channels on my factory roof rack. I have been looking endlessly to find compatible hardware but seem to be at a loss. Please help!!!!! Thank you,

To add a roof rack system that has T-Slots in the top I recommend going with the Thule WingBar Evo setup on your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon which uses the following parts:
- 43" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711120
- Evo Flush Rail Feet # TH710601
- Fit Kit # TH37CE
- Lock Core Kit - # TH450400 (optional)
Not only does this give you a roof rack you can mount your cargo box on, it also has a great look to it and the quality is nearly unmatched. If you're looking for replacement hardware for the box I'll need some pictures of it to see if it's made by a company that we might have some replacement parts for.
