Today we are going to show you the Thule Excursion Roof Mounted Cargo Box with EasySnap U-bolt mounts part number TH667ES. The Thule Excursion is a rear opening roof cargo box to allow loading from all three sides. On the rear of the box is a lockable latching mechanism that allows you to protect your cargo loaded inside the box. The cargo box features impact resistant, UV-protective, vacuum-molded ABS construction. The EasySnap mount system allows you to quickly and easily attach it to your vehicles crossbars. It is designed to fit Thule load bars, round crossbars, and most OEM style crossbars. 00:36
The Excursion utilizes Thules EasySnap mounting system. The EasySnap mounting system consists of U-bolts with pads that go on the underside of your crossbars, through the box, and into the EasySnap brackets. The EasySnap brackets unlock by pulling up the red tab and open by rotating the latch counter clockwise. Again the U-bolts slide up from under the bottom and into position. You close the latch and lock it into place and the box will be securely mounted to your crossbars. On the back of the Thule Excursion is a push button style latch system. Use the included keys to unlock. Push the latch button in and the lid will open. Inside the box are the mounting holes for the EasySnap brackets. This will allow you to position the EasySnap brackets in different positions to accommodate different roof rack crossbars. To install the EasySnap brackets all we have to do is pop them into the mounting holes in the box. Thule provides black vinyl stickers so that you can cover the unused mounting holes. 01:41
Next we are going to install one of our loading straps. It is much easier to do this before you put it up on the vehicle. The EasySnap brackets have mounting loops on the end. These are to be used with the included load straps. You will run the strap through the hole and across to the bracket on the other side and these straps will help you secure your gear inside the box. Now we are going to put the box up on top of the roof rack. When you set it up on the roof rack make sure you center it from left to right on your crossbars. Now that we have the box set up we are going to open it up and install the U-bolts. Lift up the red tab and rotate it counter clockwise until we are completely unlatched and feed the U-bolts from the bottom. With all of the U-bolts in place and secured we can start loading the box. We will take the strap that we loosely installed earlier and tighten it down onto the cargo. There is a pull handle strap on the lid that makes closing the box easy even when standing on the ground. There you have it for the Thule Excursion Roof Mounted Cargo Box part number TH667ES.

- Fitting Thule Excursion Cargo Box Part # TH667ES to 2005 Nissan X-Terra
- The Thule Excursion Cargo Box, part # TH667ES will not fit on your existing roof rack crossbars, due to their large diameter. In order to make the cargo box fit, you would need the Thule Rapid Aero Foot Pack, part # TH450R as well as the load bars, part # THARB53.

- Is the Thule Excursion Roof Mounted Cargo Box Water Tight or Water Proof
- Where the top and bottom halves meet, the edges are rolled a full 180 degrees. Water would have to come straight up from the bottom and turn 180 degrees to get inside.
The box is not water proof or water tight, but as long as it is closed all the way, rain will not fill the box. We always recommend our customers in rainy areas throw their luggage or cargo in trash bag so if any moisture does get in, the cargo will not soak it up.
