Rooftop Cargo Carrier for Use With Skis on 2010 Toyota Matrix With Naked Roof

Question:

Are there any rooftop carriers that work with the 2010 Toyota Matrix? I have a bare roof. I am looking for a rooftop carrier to put skis and other things in. Thanks!

In order to install an enclosed cargo box you will first need to have a roof rack on your Matrix. All roof racks for your Matrix can be seen on the link provided. A great low-noise option from Thule is their WingBar Rapid Traverse System consisting of parts # TH711220, # TH480R and # THKIT1512. I've linked an installation video for you.

With a rack like this in place you can select a cargo box. A great option is the Thule Force XT # TH6357B which can handle skis up to 68-7/8-inches long.

If you wish to tell me the length of your skis and a bit about your other cargo I will be glad to make some more specific suggestions.
