PVC-Lined Water-Resistant Fabric

Closeup of Ace 2 cargo bag material and inner PVC layer

The roof-mounted cargo bag is made of Hydrotuff material - 600-denier, woven polyester backed with a PVC inner layer that keeps out moisture. The semi-coated mesh material blocks 98 percent of UV rays to help prevent fading.


Closeup of welded seams on Ace 2 PackRight cargo bag

Welded seams help keep water out so your gear stays dry.


Under-the-Flap Zipper Placement

Urethane-coated zipper on Ace 2 cargo bag

This bag's zipper is protected under a flap, so it is sheltered from the rain.


Ace 2 cargo bag unzipped on top of vehicle

The zipper also runs three-quarters of the way around the roof bag, so you can easily load up the bag or access your gear.


Roof Rack or Bare Roof Mount

The Ace 2 cargo bag can be used with either a roof rack or cargo basket or on a bare roof.


Rightline Bag on Side Rails

Just attach the bag to your side rails, crossbars or cargo basket using the four included straps. The attachment straps thread through D-rings on the bag for added security.


Rightline Bag on Naked Roof

Or if you have a bare roof, you can hook the included car clips to the door frame weather molding and thread the attachment straps through the D rings on the four corners of the bag. Your car doors will close easily over the straps.


This kit includes clips that attach to the bag straps and then hook over the ledges or rain gutters at the tops of your doors. A roof protection pad (RL100650 - sold separately) is available to keep the bag from sliding around and to protect the top of your vehicle from scratches.


To lock up the bag, run a Rightline locking cable (RL100640 - sold separately) through the cutouts in the zipper pulls. Then, if you want to lock the carrier to your roof, run the cable around your roof-rack rails.

Love it. Works great. Have used it 2 times in the rain and not a drop got in on the luggage. Very happy with it.



by:

I love it. However don't let the package be so discreet



by:

It did it’s job and kept everything inside dry. Lots of room.



by:

Everything was dry and secured on the roof of the car.



by:

Storage bag was great-good size for our needs.



by:

Very Pleased with the performance. Drove from Pennsylvania to Arkansas 900+ miles through winter storm Helena. I used it with the Non-Skid Pad on a 2016 Honda Civic, bare roof. Everything stayed dry, no water leakage anywhere. It was roomier than I had expected, I managed to get a twin size futon, memory foam mattress topper, quilts, blankets & afghan, a husband pillow and a couple throw pillows in it, granted everything was compressed and tied tight, but it fit easily. My only ONLY negative is with the straps, I was not able to get them tight enough to suit so I added 2 additional (the blue ones) straps with ratcheting closure. All straps went through the car with no problem and the carrier did not budge! I did duck tape the front edge of the non-skid mat to keep it from flapping in the wind and making noise.



by:

Very durable and well made product that has held up well over long distance trips in summer rain and winter snow (about 7000 miles in total). It has developed some small holes where it was chafing with the rack basket hardware due to my own fault, but I would definitely buy another one. It fits a ton and is great for extra vehicle storage when needed and folds up small when not being used.



by:

Excellent for what I needed it for we traveled a little over 700 miles round trip two times and never had a issues ..



by:

I bought this roof top carrier to take my son to Oregon. When we stopped for our 3rd night I noticed one of the straps was ripped off. Luckily I had eXtra tie downs. When we emptied the bag I noticed the inside of the bag was disintegrating. By the time we got to Eugene the bag was worthless and we threw it out.
The hitch I bought worked well. We had a bike rack on with 2 bikes and that's pretty much all its used for.



by:

Loved it until I notice 2 of the tie down points on it started ripping. Thankfully it was on our way back home because we hit rain and got some of the luggage wet.

Roof bag ripped the first time I used it. Wouldnt tell anyone to waste their money.



by:

It's not as great as a pod. And don't recommend using in the rain. It did leak a lot when we used it returning from Christmas from my paren'ts. So got home with a roofbag full of wet clothes.
Had no issues with it in dry weather. I usually just put soft gear in it like clothes, sleeping bags/pads.



by:

This bag worked perfectly for our 2500 mile drive to and from Florida. Very easy to use and the service at Etrailer is amazing! I called several times for help and each person I spoke to was very helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this roof carrier and Etrailer!



by:

I'm very pleased with this cargo bag. Has easily handled several long-range trips. Probably better quality than I was expecting. I would buy this item again. Shipped promptly. Good followup by etrailer.



by:

Bag worked well thru heavy rain and all stayed dry inside. Straps and buckles were not that good and did not hold. I ended up using my own ratchet straps instead.



by:

I absolutely do NOT recommend this bag. Details below.

Worst bag. Ever. The bag had a lot of promise for $53! The bag seemed to be high quality with a thick outside, nice sturdy zippers, and a few great reviews, however, I must have received a dud or I was punked.

I used this bag for a two day trip from Baltimore to New Orleans with mild scattered thunderstorms. As you can see in the photos, the interior liner of the bag, that makes it waterproof, completely deteriorated which allowed copious amounts of water into my belongings. In addition to the liner deteriorating, holes were formed in the bag...holes that I could fit my fists through.

Thanks to this bag I had wet clothes, ruined books, and a few damaged electronics. I thought spending $53 on a bag would get me a quality bag. I guess I was wrong.

I love etrailer and will continue supporting them, but etrailer you need to consider taking this product out of your inventory. Seriously. etrailer, please let me know if/how I can return this bag for a refund or exchange for a better quality bag.

Side Note: Anyone who has this bag, be sure to bind the zip pulls together by intertwining the pulls -- this will ensure the bag will not open because of the wind causing the bag to flap and slowly pry open the bag.

Brian,Our Customer Service team will be in touch about the warranty andor return. Well be getting in touch with Rightline and may have them contact you directly.



by:

We used this the weekend after it arrived for a 600+ mile road trip. The mounting instructions help to clarify the strap configuration, and the bag itself is quite roomy. We did not encounter precipitation so I cannot attest to its water-tight attributes, but it did the job well and we are happy with the purchase.



by:

Arrived in good time. Easy to pack and attach to the car (using enclosed directions) even though I don't have a roof rack. Didn't encounter any rain, but it looks sturdy enough and well-made to withstand some serious downpours.



by:

They fit perfectly on my crossover. The instructions where easy to follow and took no time at all to install. This allowed my son and I take my wife on one last special trip together. Great products, thanks so much.



by:

Pretty fast delivery, I was ordering it on Saturday night and got it at my door Tuesday afternoon.
I am planning to use it for a trip to Canada. It looks like it fits good on top of my Jeep Patriot.

Grain of salt this review. I used it once. It was great the one time I used it. I haven’t used it since then. I’m confident it will work next time too



by:


We used it to go camping and we were
able to put all of our clothes and blankets in the bag and we had room for extras. It worked great and we were very happy with it. This is a great product and we are very happy with it.

Great product! Holds a lot of gear! Everything stayed dry even though we drove through some heavy downpours! Would gladly recommend this product!

Great product at a competitive price.

  • What are the Differences Between Roof Bag on Naked Roof and Roof Rack Mounted Bag?
    Apart from how the rooftop bags mount there is little difference between the cargo bags that go on the naked roof of your 2013 Kia Soul or one that attaches to a roof rack. To avoid having to put a pricey roof rack on your Soul, I strongly recommend going with a bag that mounts to your naked roof such as the Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S20. This bag is waterproof, has 15 cubic feet of storage and is 44" long x 36" wide x 19" tall. You can mount the Rightline by running...

  • Will Rightline Sport 3 XL Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30 Fit 2012 Chrysler Town and Country
    The Rightline Sport 3 XL Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30 will fit just about any vehicle roof regardless of whether or not it has hardware, side rails or crossbars. If the Town and Country is equipped with a factory-installed roof rack then the crossbars are the self-storing type that fold into the side rails when not in use. I reviewed the owners manual for this vehicle and it does not specify the dimensions or spread of the crossbars (but I was able to verify that the roof weight capacity...

  • Recommended Rooftop Cargo Bag for Crossbars on a 2019 Toyota RAV4
    Bruce, the straps on the Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag # RRLB350 are really only long enough to go around the bars on a platform rack so it's not going to work with your regular cross bars. Instead, I'd recommend going with the Rightline Gear Ace 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100A20 which is pretty similar to the Rhino-Rack cargo bag, much easier on the wallet, and can be mounted directly to your crossbars with the longer straps.

  • Can the 13.5 cu ft Curt Cargo Bag be Installed Without Basket on a 2016 Volkswagen Touareg
    The Curt Cargo Bag # C18220 was designed to fit in the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115 and you wouldn't be able to mount it directly to the roof of your 2016 Volkswagen Touareg. If you'd like a little larger bag that was designed for a bare roof application I recommend the Rightline Gear Sport 2 # RL100A20.

  • Recommended Roof Rack, Roof Bag, and Bike Carrier for 2015 Toyota Prius
    For your 2015 Toyota Prius, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars # RR44SR. This is a custom fit for your vehicle and is a custom fit for your vehicle. I've attached a video to assist. For your roof bag, I recommend the Rightline Gear Ace 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100A20. This is a very nice bag with a 3/4 opening zipper for loading and unloading as well as a flap over the zipper to keep water out. You may also want to consider a wheel mounted step...

  • Will Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket TH859XT Fit a 2007 Toyota 4Runner
    The # TH859XT Thule roof mounted cargo basket is designed to fit most OEM roof rack bars of all sizes. This rack requires that the crossbars be situated between 20 inches and 37 inches apart. If you are in this range then this will be a great basket for you. An extension, part # TH8591XT is available for the # TH859XT basket, if needed. We also offer a large selection of cargo bags designed for use on roof top baskets. The Rightline Ace 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag, part # RL100A20 offers 15...

  • Rooftop Cargo Bag for Use on 2003 Saab 93 with Naked Roof
    The Rightline Ace Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100A20 that you referenced is a great choice for vehicles like the 2003 Saab 93 that do not have roof hardware to secure a cargo bag. This water-resistant unit when loaded measures 44 x 34-inches (and 17-inches tall). The 34-inch width should be fine on this vehicle and a quick check with a measuring tape will give you a good sense of how it will fit. However, I do suggest you consider instead Rightline's weather-proof version, part # RL100S30, which...

  • Installing the Rightline Edge Rooftop Cargo Bag on a 2012 Honda CR-V With a Naked Roof
    To install the Rightline Edge Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100A20 on the top of your 2012 Honda CR-V with a naked roof, it is best to run the straps through the CR-V's interior and then back out and around the carrier. Since your CR-V does not have a roof rack, this will be the best possible way to secure the cargo bag to your roof. You will want to make sure to check your owner's manual for your CR-V's roof weight capacity. If you would rather use a roof rack, our most cost-effective roof rack...

  • Recommended Roof Rack, Basket And Cargo Bag for 2012 Dodge Journey
    The Rhino Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack w/ Aero Crossbars, part # DA1375 for silver finish or # DA1375B for black and the vehicle specific clamp kit, part # DK200 would be an excellent choice for your Journey. You can use a roof mounted cargo bag that would strap directly to the crossbars, but I recommend using a basket like the Thule Canyon XT part # TH859XT that would keep the bag and cooler from sitting directly on your vehicle roof and possibly scratching the paint.

This cargo bag has straps that can run through the vehicles interior and then out around the carrier to secure the bag to the vehicle. If you were interested in a cargo basket or a cargo box, you will want to add a roof rack. There are many different roof rack options for your 2009 Honda Fit.

  • Rightline Rooftop Cargo Bag Recommendation for a 2004 Saturn Ion
    The Rightline Gear Roof Cargo Carrier # RL100S30 that you referenced is designed to fit the naked roofs of larger vehicles like SUV's, crossover, and minivans so it would be a little too big for your 2004 Saturn Ion. A bag that would work on your vehicle that would fit your roof better would be the part # RL100A20 as this is designed to fit the naked roof of sedans. I also recommend a protective pad, # RL100650, to protect the roof when using the bag.

  • Rooftop Cargo Bag Recommendation for a 2011 Jeep Patriot Without Crossbars
    We had a Jeep Patriot on our lot so I went out to take some measurements. For the Patriot, I recommend choosing a roof bag that is no wider than 36 inches because that is the space you have available between the side rails on your roof. If you choose a wider roof bag, the bag will hang over the side rails. One roof bag that you may be interested in is the Rightline Ace Rooftop Cargo Bag, # RL100A20. This bag is 34 inches wide x 44 inches long x 17 inches tall. This cargo bag should be...

  • Can I Install the Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag on Roof Racks?
    For these items, the intent is for them to buckle inside a cargo basket. A roof basket like the Rola Mounted Basket, part # 59504 would let you use it. The Rhino Rack Rooftop Carrier Bag, part # RRLB350, only has straps long enough to connect to a roof basket, not all the way around and through the inside of the vehicle or even around just the factory roof rails. A better solution for you would be a bag that outright mounts to your existing roof rack, such as the Rightline Gear Ace Jr....

  • Roof Top Cargo Bag Options for a 2005 Toyota Prius
    What you would need to do is measure the available free space on the roof of your 2005 Toyota Prius to see if the Rightline Sport 3 XL Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30 would fit. This bag measures 48" long x 40" wide x 19" tall which is pretty big so you if you need one smaller you would want the # RL100A20 which measures 44" long x 34" wide x 17" tall.

    You will want to measure the dimensions of the roof of your 2012 Toyota Prius to determine if the # RL100S30 that you referenced would fit as it normally recommended for SUVs, crossovers and minivans. This bag has dimensions that are 48" long x 40" wide x 19" tall. For a smaller bag that could fit better you would want the # RL100A20 as it is 44" x 34" x 16" and normally used on sedans like yours. I also recommend a protective pad, # RL100650, to protect the roof when using the bag.

    The Rightline Ace Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100A20 that you referenced is a great option in a universal-fit rooftop cargo bag. It will work great on your Accord. This water-resistant 15-cubic-foot bag can attach to any type of vehicle roof - even ones without any rails or bars - and this means it can be easily transferred from your Accord to another car when you need to. With any bag of this type I recommend a non-skid pad to protect your car's roof from scratches and to help hold the bag...

    If you plan on carrying a cargo bag on the roof of your vehicle you would want one that is specifically designed to attach to a roof rack like the Rightline Ace 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100A20. This rackholds 15 cf of cargo space, a little morethan the Rola that you referenced and would do an excellent job as a roof rack for your trip. I also recommend a protective pad, # RL100650, to protect the roof when using the bag. I attached a review video for this bag for you to check out as well.

With these two part numbers you would have everything needed for a roof rack. Crossbars and mounting kit is included. For a cargo basket you could go with the Curt Basket part # C18115, and then for a bag part # RL100A20. I attached a review video for both products for...

    The Advantage roof mounted cargo bag you mentioned is designed to be used only on a vehicle roof that has existing side rails or crossbars. In order to be used on a bare roof, the bag will need to have straps that are long enough to pass through the vehicle itself, through the door jambs and along the ceiling of the vehicle. We have several bags that are designed to be used in this manner, ranging in size from 4 to 18 cubic feet of storage space. Keep in mind that the small size of...
