Low Profile Cargo Basket Option For A 2021 Toyota Highlander
Question:
Recommendations for a low profile cargo basket for a 2021 Toyota Highlander with flush mount factory roof rails.
asked by: Tami B
Expert Reply:
Hey Tami, so since your 2021 Toyota Highlander has the flush mount rails, your only option for adding a cargo basket will be to first add a roof rack with crossbars. I suggest going with a Rhino Rack Aero Bar roof rack, which will consist of the following parts:
- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2
- RCH Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars # RRRCH4
- Custom RCP Fit Kit # RR66QT
From there you can add really any cargo basket of your choice. Our best low profile option is the Flint Hill Goods Roof Cargo Basket # FHG74ZR which is 46" long, 36" wide and only 4-1/4" tall.
