According to my Thule representative, the actual mounting hardware originally used on the Cascade 1700 is no longer available. The good news is that a mounting kit for newer boxes, the EasySnap U-Bolt # 43216 is available and will work with your Cascade 1700 cargo box.

If you have the older model without the spring loaded EasySnap, then use # TH04997.

You would need to look at the hardware. The 669ES will have easy snap hardware which will look like the part #43216 that you referenced. The 669 would have installation hardware that would look like part #TH04997 instead.
