You'll need to take a measurement to determine which rack would be best. If your front roof crossbar is adjustable, move it all the way forward. Then, measure rearward until you reach the seam between the rear hatch and the roof.
Consult the last column of the table I provided, and compare your measurement to those shown. If your vehicle measures less than the number listed, that cargo box will fit your vehicle without contacting your hatch.
For example, if your measurement was less than 51 inches, the Force XT Sport # TH6356B, Pulse L # TH615, Pulse M # TH614 and Sidekick # TH78GC would fit.
For safely reaching rooftop cargo, a tire step like part # HE4040 work vey well.
