SpeedR is on a distinguished road
I shopped around for a roof top cargo setup for a few months. After looking at several offerings by Thule, Yakima and BMW, I went with the BMW base support system rails and a Thule Atlantis 1600.

While I'm not always a big fan of BMW accessories, the base supprt system (cross rails) for the X5 are first rate quality. I tried the Thule rails out, but the BMW rails are much nicer. Also, I was able to get them from my local Stealer for the same price as the Thules.

As for the box, I'm very happy with the Thule Atlantis. It is well designed, good quality, and good looking. I just drove over 2,200 miles with it and it is very quiet even at 80+ MPH!!
