Yakima RocketBox Pro 11 Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2011 Toyota RAV4- Video

Today on our 2011 Toyota Rav4, we'll be test fitting the Yakima Rocketbox Pro 11 Rooftop Cargo Box measuring 11 cubic feet in black, part number Y07193. With the factory roof rack system on our vehicle and our rear antenna removed, we'll begin our test fit by placing the Rocketbox directly onto our crossbars. Since the feet are hanging out at the bottom of the box, we can adjust them as necessary to fit around each bar. We'll lift up on the lid and then tighten the two hand knobs on this side of the box to secure our feet around our bars. A great feature on the Rocketbox is its ability to open from either side of the vehicle. We'll move to the driver's side, open the box, and tighten down the two remaining feet. more
