Compatability of the Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket with a 2008 Honda CRV

Expert Reply:

Yes, the Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, item # 59504, will work on the roof rack of your 2008 Honda CRV as long as you have factory crossbars and they are not larger than 3-1/4 inches wide and 1-1/4 inches thick. Step 6 of the instructions (see link) shows exactly how the carrier is to be mounted to the crossbars and how large the crossbars can be.

If you do not have rails or crossbars on your CRV then you can use the Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack for Square Load Bars, item # TH460, Thule Fit Kit for Podium Style Foot Pack, # 3042, item # THKIT3042, and the Thule Load Bars - 50 inches Wide, item # THLB50, to put a roof rack on your vehicle so that the Rola basket can be used.
