Put the Thule roofbox on top to test fit it, and make sure the cross bars were in the right position, and that the trunk spoiler won't hit when open. Everything looked good, should only take 5 minutes to put it on top and fasten it with the Quick-Fasten sytem...


I leave my crossbars on all the time. In the winter the Thule cargo box is up there to carry our skis and snowboards, in the summer I have bike carriers and a kayak carrier on the roof as well as a Saris ride on bike carrier in the tow hitch. The tow hitch is also used for towing and launching our jet boat.

Our X is indeed a Sport activity vehicle since it is used for carrying all our sport equipment.
