Video Transcript for Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 Roof Cargo Box Review

Today well be reviewing the Yakima RocketBox Pro12 Rooftop Cargo Box, part number y07191. Now with the RocketBox already assembled, well start up our review by installing it onto the vehicle. To assist us in our review today, we will be using the HitchMate Adjustable Tire Step, part number he4040. Set the RocketBox onto the vehicles cross bars and open up the lid. Well first loosen up the black circle knob on the inside of the lid to slide and adjust the arms to fit on the cross bars. This also allows you to position the rear clamps so that the box sits far enough up that it wont interfere with your hatch.

Once weve spaced out the brackets on the underside of the RocketBox, well unscrew the red T-handle to loosen up the jaws. Well do this for all four of the red handles and all four of the black knobs to loosen up the jaws to fit the jaws around the cross bars. Well then first tighten on the black knob to secure the jaws in position, and then turn the red T-handle to tighten down the jaws to secure the carrier to the vehicle. This economically priced roof-mounted cargo box provides storage for your gear. Its short and wide design is weather safe and perfect for vehicles with short roof lines.

The box opens from either side to allow you to access cargo from either side of the vehicle. It used key locks with Yakimas same key system course on both sides of the box, and the SKS course can be changed out to make all of your Yakima locks key alike. The aerodynamic shape reduces wind noise and drag, and the style lines are designed to match the look of smaller vehicles. There are four tie-down points inside the box that allow you to secure your gear with minimal movement. Its constructed of ABS plastic and has as sleek, sophisticated look that will compliment any vehicle.

It carries twelve cubic feet of storage, weighs thirty pounds, and comes with a limited warrantee. Now that weve gone over some features and specs, of the Yakima RocketBox Pro12, well load up some gear and show you how it looks driving down the road. And that completes todays review of the Yakima RocketBox Pro12 Rooftop Cargo Box, part number yo7191.

Great product. Was a little tricky to put together and is a little "flimsy." Not quite as rigid and sturdy as I was hoping for but still a great item. 45840

My roof top cargo box arrived in great shape and earlier than I expected. Assembly went pretty smooth but I prefer some text along with the pictures. The box is now on my van, packed and ready for the trip back to Ohio. I gave it a test run at 75 MPH and had no problems. I like the either side opening feature. It should work out just fine.36874

The lock on one side is a little stiff - almost feels like I might break the key trying to open or close that side. Otherwise it seems OK. Will be using it for a long trip this weekend.79112

Haven't gotten the chance to use it yet so I'm holding off on the excellent rating, but it was easy to put together, and the hinges and clamping device are much higher quality than I expected. I needed it to fit 3 sets of golf clubs and it fits them perfectly - with no room to spare though. With it's low profile I was able to drive into the garage with it on the roof. I have a Mazda Cx7 - it allows sky light to operate and doesn't come close to the antenna in the back - actually, had I known it would fit so well, I would have gotten a bigger box. I like that it opens at both sides. I'm looking forward to using it for our 2 week trip in June. 38692

Expert Answers about Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 Rooftop Cargo Box - 12 cu ft - Black - Y07191                                            Do you have a question about this Roof Cargo Carrier?


  • Will Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 Clear the Roof Antenna on 2012 Chevy Equinox
  • According to Yakima, the RocketBox 12 is designed to be wider and shorter than average to accommodate vehicles with shorter roofs. To confirm fit, measure from the CENTER of the front crossbar rearward to the antenna. If this measurement is 40 inches or less, the RocketBox Pro 12, # Y07191 will work great for you. Since the antenna is angled rearward, keep in mind that the bottom of the cargo box will be a few inches higher than the vehicle roof. Thule offers the Excursion, part # TH667ES

  • Recommendation For Rooftop Cargo Box To Fit a 2007 GMC Yukon Denali
  • I am showing the roof of a 2007 GMC Yukon Denali to have flush mounted side rails that run from front to back.

I am including a link to an installation video that will show the Yakima roof rack being installed on a GMC Terrain with the factory side rails.

  • Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 Sometimes Will Not Lock
  • It sounds like the lid is not coming down all of the way or it is uneven. The lids on cargo boxes like # Y07191 are solid but flexible so one side may be slightly ajar even if it looks closed. The box will not lock unless the lid is closed properly. The lid has to latch all the way in 3 places (per side) to close correctly. It is possible that during the assembly of the box that something is misaligned and that is causing the issue. You can try to correct this by disassembling the box using t

  • Can Sealant be Added to a Yakima Cargo Box to Make it More Weather Resistant
  • With a good strong driving rain you might get some moisture in the box but generally speaking in normal conditions the inside of the box is pretty well protected from the elements. We always recommend placing items that cannot get wet in plastic bags. I do not recommend adding any additional sealant or weatherstripping because that can change the way the box lid closes and can make it difficult to close and lock the box. If you look at your box you will notice that the lid goes around and dro

  • How Wide Does Yakima RocketBox Pro Y07191 Open and Will it Clear the Antenna on a 2013 Mazda CX-5
  • The Yakima RocketBox Pro # Y07191 can be opened from either side of the vehicle, so the lid is secured by multi-rotational hinges toward the center of each end of the box. These location of these hinges prevent the lid from being swung fully open from one side or the other. In other words, the lid on the RocketBox cannot open like a toolbox or toy chest lid which have hinges along one side. My contact at Yakima said the distance from lid to base is about 11 inches when opened. Looking at

  • Can the Sun Roof on a 2013 Mini Countryman be Opened with a Yakima Cargo Box Mounted
  • the mounting feet on the Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 # Y07191 are going to fit under the crossbars on your 2013 Mini Countryman and will most likely interfere with the opening of the sun roof. You really would not want to open the sun roof with the box mounted any way because it would be noisy because of the wind resistance from the box. If you have the type of sunroof that slides back into a cavity inside the roof and no part of the sun roof goes up when opening and closing it then it should no
