How to Install Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30 on 2013 Chevrolet Express Van
Question:
How do you mount roof cargo bags on the roof of a chevy express ?
asked by: Shawn
Expert Reply:
If your Express has a naked roof (without any hardware) then there are other similar soft cargo bags that can mount directly to the van without need for a roof rack or basket. The link provided will let you see all 6 weather-proof cargo bags offered.
For example, the Rightline Weatherproof Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30 has an 18-cubic foot capacity, weather-proof construction to protect your belongings and if you wish can be used along with Rightline Rooftop Cargo Bag Car Clips # RL100600 if you want to avoid running the straps through the vehicle.
Recommended accessories for any rooftop cargo bag application are a protective non-slip pad, part # RL100650 which helps keep the bag in place; and a tire step # HE4040 that provides easier access to the bag for loading and unloading and which folds up for easy storage in the vehicle.
