Specs:
The Thule Canyon XT cargo basket allows you to easily transport a wide range of gear on your vehicle's roof. It maximizes your vehicle's cargo carrying capacity and keeps dirty and damp gear outside of the vehicle. A built-in fairing reduces drag and wind noise, and the mounting hardware is adjustable to accommodate different crossbar spreads. The included 20" extension piece allows you to adjust the basket length as needed.
The low-profile Canyon XT is wedge-shaped and aerodynamic. A wind fairing attaches to the front of the basket to help redirect air up and over the basket. This helps to reduce drag and wind noise. And the side walls are tapered for easy loading.
The basket has universal mounting hardware that fits most crossbar styles, and the hardware adjusts to accommodate most crossbar spreads.
You can position the hardware anywhere along the bottom of the basket to match your crossbar spread. The hardware easily clamps to basket's bottom rails.
To install the basket, simply align the included U-bolts under your crossbars and use the hand knobs to tighten them to the mounting hardware. The system includes 3 sets of U-bolts to accommodate most crossbar sizes.
You can also mount the basket directly into your crossbar's top channels using the included T-bolts. Just slide the T-bolts into the crossbar top channels and use the hand knobs to tighten them to the mounting hardware.
This basket comes with an extension that allows you to customize the length of the basket depending on your needs.
You can bolt all 3 pieces together to create a long basket to carry kayak paddles and other long cargo. To install the extension, loosen the bolts on the bottom of the basket with the included Allen wrench and remove the front of the basket. Slide the ends of the extension into the bars of the basket and re-secure the front of the basket to the extension.
Or simply bolt the front and rear pieces together leaving out the 20" extension to create a standard size basket for bags, camping gear, and other compact cargo.

Ratings & Reviews
The Canyon XT installed with ease & also provides multiple mounting brackets for attaching to crossbars.
It will definitely give us more interior room or additional cargo capacity!
I highly suggest reading the directions a few times before you start & during assembly. Some parts are in the same bag for a step while other steps need parts from different bags.
Depending on your vehicle, all parts may not be used. So make sure the parts you have left over are the right ones!
This was not too hard to install. It looks great on the truck and will eliminate so much “stuff” packed on the inside!!! I really like it. Not noisy at all. (There is a slight change in wind noise but not much at all)
Ordered the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket from etrailer. It came within days of oredering and is as advertised. Ordering from etrailer was an excellent experience. They followed kept me informed of the status as we went along and sent me warranty information after receipt George and Carol were great to work with. PS - the installation was a breeze and we used it to haul roof top items on our camping trip last weekend. Thank You - I will certainly not hesitate to order from etrailer again!!
The cargo basket was a given as a gift. The recipient is delighted.
We were very happy with our Thule roof rack. The low profile design works well and does not have too much wind noise compared to others I’ve had. It’s held up very well also through the seasons.
Your shipping rocks! Good job on the fast delivery. And a top notch product s.
a beautiful addition to a beautiful car, "naked" roof rails (glass roof with no rails present). basket, both e-trailer supplied and a Yakima tire mount with locked large turnbuckle makes a perfect urban road runner MadMAX badboy
Easily assembled in about 20 minutes. Sturdy construction and should last a lifetime. Lillian W. was very helpful and courteous through the process.
Product arrived super quick and was very easy to install.
Excellent quality and looks great!
Takes a little time to assemble and install but the end product is worth it. Now i am worthy to go camping and carry all my stuff with me!
Love this basket. Sturdy, easy to install, super functional. Would never have another car without it.
As advertised, fast shipping, easy to install, quality product.
All items were delivered quickly and as ordered. I would definitely order from etrailer again.
Excellente product, utilized to travel on a Chevy Taho. Great capacity, easy to assemble and installation. Practical no noise during travel.
This was so easy to put together. It fits great on my 2014 Subaru Crosstrek. I plan on loading all the camping gear in it when we go on vacation. The folks at ETrailer.com have been great inn keeping me up to date on the status of my order.
Use this for camping and going to the beach. Works perfectly and holds a lot more than the fancy luggage carriers and costs a lot less. Just buy a waterproof zip up cargo carrier to put everything in and strap it down.
I’ve got several 1400+ mile trips with this on both a 2017 4Runner and a 2023 Kia Sportage. The basket is well made, easy to install, very solid and so far rust free.
Joy T was amazing to work with and extremely helpful with my order It’s nice actually being able to talk to an American! Product arrived on time and install was a breeze and looks great! Can’t wait to use it! Thank you etrailer for putting your customers first!
