my rooftop carrier! It was perfect for our golf clubs. etrailer was wonderful. Great communication and it arrived on expected date.



by:

Perfect for vehicles with limited space between bike carriers for mounting. This was the narrowest clam shell I could find. Fits 2 inflatable stand up paddle boards plus more. The only tricky thing with this unit was figuring out how to change the lock core (it's a different process than other Thule products) to match my other locks on the vehicle, but the etrailer video on this topic came to the rescue.



by:

if the box could slide up another inch the hatch would clear the back of the box. I have a 2017 Subaru Outback.
I just received the box today and have not taken it out on the road.

For the hatch to open fully with the box installed there must be at least 55.25 inches between the front cross bar and the line where the roof and hatch meet.

I found the toolbox easy to mount on the roof of the car, secure, quiet on the road. I wish I could slide 2 inches it further forward on the rack so that I could fully open the hatch. I have a Subaru outback.



by:

Love it. Fits perfectly on my 2014 Outback and 2017 Town and Country.

Easy to install and uninstall.

Waterproof.

I like that you can not remove keys without locking. No accidentally driving off with it being shut but not locked.

Outstanding. Ive used it five times, one to two week trips. No issues in rain. On our last trip we were caught in heavy winds and snow. I did have snow accumulation inside. Speed of vehicle and wind must have forced the snow inside. Ironically Ive never had rain, under similiar driving situation, enter the carrier. After I got our stuff out I was unable to lock the carrier. Melted snow refroze in locking lugsnot the key lock did not freeze. The temperature never approached freezing....the high that week was about -5. So I took the carrier off and the same came out a few days the ice in the lug areas meleted. I was able to lock it and make it home, two days of driving, with no issues.



by:

The folks at your company where thoughtful, helpful and thorough. Thanks for everything and keep up your wonerful customer service. The Thule Pulse Alpine roof cargo box has been great!



by:

It was what I expected with a feature that I didn't expect. The quick mounting clamps make it very easy to attach.

The low clearance,11 inches, allows me to put my Highlander in the garage without fear of hitting the garage door frame. I traveled 2,000 miles on a ski trip and the Pulse stayed firm. All of our skis and gear stayed dry

arrived in a timely manner, freight company called to set up delivery, am satisfied with my purchase. Would buy from etrailer again!

Pod works great, got the long version 210cm, fits shovels and other tools, kayak paddles and our skis. glad I got it, keeps my truck bed free of awkward shaped things to pack it better. Got it during covid, took a while but worth the wait. etrailer is a great company Ive bought stuff from them before and will again.



by:

I received the box last week and mounted it on my 2022 Toyota RAV 4 Prime installed roof rack crossbars. The box fits well, no interference with the rear lift gate. I have not yet driven with it on the car - and won’t until we travel carrying passengers and skis/equipment. (Our garage doors are small - 83” height - so the box cannot be on the roof going in or out of the garage.)



by:

The product is good, a bit pricy for what you get but etrailer seemed to have the most competitive price around. The service and delivery is second to none and makes me keep coming back for my vehicle needs. I have had too many bad experiences with shipping items like this from the (online big tech store), but etrailer's delivery/carrier service is excellent every time!



by:

The Thule Alpine turned out to be a great choice. It fits all of our roof racks and is easy to adjust. More room than expected and the low profile is great if you have a larger SUV.



by:

First, there we’re complications with the delivery which I caused and eTrailer reps worked with me and worked it out. Second, All products purchased fit and installed rather easily on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK. This outcome was a result of working with one of their reps to get the right in-stock parts that fit right. Finally, I reviewed installation videos which helped me get the job done right the first time.



by:

Great rack. Low profile fits on Toyota Highlander into standard height garage. Stays on all winter for skis plus a couple times throughout the year for other trips. Fits at least four pairs of skis.



by:

Very sturdy construction, yet light weight and slim cargo box. I have a P3 Volvo XC70 and it fits very nicely with the rear hatch open. I like the slim design of this cargo box which should minimize the reduction in MPGs while its on the vehicle.



by:

Great size box, the latching function is very particular though, you have to be able to completely close it with no resistance or it won't lock. It sounds annoying but it's a very good indicator that the box is secure and won't fly open on the freeway. We've used it for cross country trips and it's held up great, not much noise from it, a little but nothing that was too annoying. Definitely worth the money for extra storage.



by:

Love the low profile.= less wind resistance and better mpg. Lock keeps valuables safe and dry. Exactly what I wanted.



by:

I'd go 3.5 if I could. Def will work but... Feels cheaply made / flimsy, the key latch also seems a little cheesy. For the amount of money I would like a little more robust. I get it keep it light but geezo



by:

Came earlier than expected not damaged. Customer service was excellent and the pod is working out great!



by:

Great product. Great company. Reasonable delivery time. Would do business with e-trailer again! Thanks



by:

Faster than expected delivery! Great product and price!

It’s OK. The lock seems weak. Time will tell.

  • What is Internal Length of Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613
    I double checked with Thule and the correct interior dimensions for the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 are the numbers they list on their site of 82.75 × 23.5 × 10.5. It looks like they may have updated them at some point and we didn't make the needed change. I sent an update to have the correct size listed.

    To determine the best Thule Motion cargo box for your 2014 Subaru Outback, you will want to measure from the center of the front crossbar to the seam where the hatch meets the roof. That distance will determine the larges box you can use and not have hatch interference. I've attached a photo to assist.

  • Will Two 30 Inch Wide Kayaks Fit on Lower Deck of Yakima EasyRider Trailer
    I don't believe your two 30 inch wide kayaks will fit on the bottom deck of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 . I confirmed through my contact at Yakima that the width of the bottom deck is 54 inches inside to inside of the 2 inch diameter tubing that make up the frame. Because the bottom deck has a height of 21 inches, you would not be able to fit your 30 inch wide kayaks on their side, as you mentioned. You could, however, fit one on the bottom and a second or third...

  • How to Determine Which Replacement Thule Key is Needed
    We offer Thule replacement keys. Look at the face of the lock, next to the key slot. There should be a number stamped or engraved into the metal. It'll typically an 'N' followed by 3 or 4 digits. That number will tell you what key number you need. For instance, say the number on the lock is 'N030' like what's shown in the photo I provided. In that case, the part number for the replacement key would be # THKEYN030. Use the prefix 'THKEYN' followed by the 3 or 4 digit number on the lock.

  • Will the Thule Alpine Cargo Box Fit a 2017 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk?
    Yes, it will Kali! The Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box item # TH613 will definitely attach to Thule crossbars. You'll just need to ensure they are spread out between 23-5/8" - 35-3/4". One thing I do want to point out, if you want to be able to open your rear hatch you'll need to ensure your front crossbar is 55-1/4" from the line where the roof and hatch meet. I have linked a review video below so you can see how to get this cargo box set up and some of its features demonstrated.

These work with round, square, aero, elliptical and most factory crossbars.

  • How to Fit Thule Pulse Alpine Box and Yakima SkinnyWarrior Carrier on 2022 Toyota 4Runner Roof
    To fit the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 (or any cargo box itself to be honest) with the Yakima SkinnyWarrior # Y07014 on your 2022 Toyota 4Runner you need to install an aftermarket roof rack for a few reasons; the OEM bars aren't long enough to fit both cargo carrier, and the OEM crossbars sit too low to the roof to physically fit either of the options above. Yakima actually calls out not to install any of their cargo boxes on the 4Runner OEM bars because of this issue. For...

  • How to Carry Cargo on Crossbars With a 50 Inch Spread
    There is a way for you to carry cargo on crossbars that have a 50 inch spread but rooftop cargo boxes like the Thule Pulse Alpine # TH613 or Inno Wedge 660 # INBRM660BK cannot be modified to accommodate a spread of that size. The reason for that is they use sliding clamps to adjust to different crossbar spreads so you would not be able to drill holes to allow those clamps to work properly. There are cargo boxes that use U-bolts to attach but none that have the proper length and shape to...

  • Thule Cargo Box Recommendation that Allows Rear Hatch to Open
    To determine if the Thule Pulse Alpine Roof Cargo Box part # TH613 will allow the rear hatch of your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon with factory crossbars to open will require you to take one simple measurement. You will need to measure from the center of the front crossbar back to the seam on the hatch. If that distance is greater than 55-1/4 inches this box will allow the rear door to open. We had a customer with a similar 2015 Subaru Outback tell us that the distance they have there was 51...

  • Which Thule Roof Box Will Allow Rear hatch To Open Fully On 2015 Toyota 4Runner
    To make sure a roof box allows you to open the rear hatch fully, you can take a quick measurement. Move your front crossbar forward as far as it will go and measure from the center of the crossbar back to the seam between the roof and the rear hatch. That is called 'Front Clearance'. I have attached a chart that gives you the front clearance requirement for the Thule roof boxes we offer. For example, the Thule Alpine, part # TH613 needs a front clearance of 55-1/4 inches.

Based on the inner and outer measurements you provided, it seems that your crossbar spread is 36 inches. If this is the case, I have a solution for you, but the Thule Pulse Alpine # TH613 will not work for your roof rack's 36 inch crossbar spread.

    There are a lot of great options for noise-reducing cargo boxes.

I recommend the Thule Pulse Alpine # TH613 as it has an ultra-low profile and a clean factory look. You will need to check the crossbar spread of your roof rack to determine if any of our cargo boxes...

  • What Thule Cargo Box will Fit on My 2018 Toyota Highlander?
    The Thule Cargo box that will work with your vehicle depends on how much space you want in a cargo box. I did some research on your 2018 Toyota Highlander, and I found out that the measurement from the farthest forward position of your front crossbars to the point where the hitch and roof meet is 79 inches. This is relevant because this measurement decides what Thule cargo boxes will allow you to fully open your rear hatch on your vehicle. For a small Thule box, I recommend the Thule Pulse...

    Yes! The Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo box # TH613 will fit your 2013 Toyota Rav4 without interfering with your hatch. When installing this cargo box there are a couple of points to keep in mind. First is that the minimum crossbar spread should be 23-5/8 inches. If your crossbars do not move to accommodate the installation, the attachment points inside the cargo box have an adjustability of about 8 inches. Secondly, this cargo box has a weight capacity of 110 lbs. Either your owners manual...

  • Cargo Box Compatibility With A Prinsu Roof Rack On A 2017 Lexus GX 460
    Seems like you're needing something that is a bit skinnier on your roof since you have other attachments on your roof already. That being said this Thule Pulse Alpine Box # TH613 is only 25-1/2" wide x 88-1/2" long x 12-1/2" tall. Most cargo boxes including this one need crossbars that are no larger than # 3-5/16" wide x 1-1/2" tall so make sure your Prinsu Rack Crossbars are at least that size or smaller. Since you have so many crossbars, make sure there is at least 23-5/8" of crossbar...
