54 x 25 x 15. Roof box mounts to your crossbars with U-bolts and reinforcement plates. Locking lid opens from the passenger's side of your vehicle. Great for carrying luggage, groceries, and other gear. Impact-resistant polyethylene construction.I have been really happy with this roof box, I was concerned at first because it did not feel as heavy or sturdy as some I've had in the past but it's performed really well and the shape is great. Because of the shape it holds things like carry on luggage on their side, backpacks and lots of gear. A year in, still loving this purchase.
This review is not about the Thule Sidekick I ordered. It is about etrailer. Their prices are very competitive and I received free shipping. I placed my order on a Friday, was promised delivery the following Thursday and my item was delivered two days earlier on Tuesday. I will certainly consider etrailer for future purchases.
This cargo carrier is perfect for our needs. Stacey with etrailer helped with ordering & any questions we had. The topper arrived quickly, we didn’t install immediately waiting on roof rack rails.
A week or so later ready to install we noticed a rivet missing on the front lock… took pictures & emailed Stacey. She called back within hours & the next day a replacement was on the way…..
We’d give 10 stars for her exceptional Customer Service! Thank you for exceeding our expectations!
I have a 2016 ford focus se hatchback & I mounted this in the middle on rhino rack vortex bars. Looks awesome! It’s very sturdy & I can fit a decent amount in this box.
Quick delivery. We just put together the box, haven't used it yet, but everything looks good.

Works great. Weve used it a half a dozen times, and it has worked well each time.
The sidekick has been a great cargo box for road trips over the last year.
This is a great addition to my Subaru Forester for camping and outdoor adventures! It holds up really well even during a rainstorm. Very happy to have purchased it.
Got Very Frustrated on step one as Paper kept sticking to foam sealer, until I cut back nearly 12" of material!
Directions are MINIMALLY Clear. Luckily I am an Engineer and got lucky via deductive reasoning
We've used a few times for long trips with 5 kids and 2 adults. It definitely gave us the cargo space we needed for the trip.
It works great. Easy enough to put together and install/remove from the car. We were torn between this and slightly bigger model. Could have went bigger, but this freed a lot of space and made packing Tetris much easier.
This was a game changer! We have started making trips from TX to NC and NC to FL several times a year. After getting 2 adults, 2 teens and 2 dogs in my Lexus NX, there's not much room inside the car for much. Getting this Thule roof rack box has been great. Amazing how much stuff and then some will fit. Minimal noise and insignificant impact on mpg too. Great purchase.
Meets its needs. Plastic is rather thin - definitely meant to haul lighter items, but is rather spacious for its compact length. Requires some assembly with two people. Spouse is happy because it fits some extra beach gear she wanted to haul on vacation.
Like the product, good quality, easy as sembly
It’s been great overall, but the key did break in one of the locks which has been inconvenient.
Thank you for shipping so quick. I received it in 2 days.
product arrived on time and in excellent condition.
Delivered Thule rooftop box on time in excellent condition.
It arrived a bit banged up. There were a number of dents probably related to being banked around during shipping. Most popped out. One or two may not. I haven’t put it together, so maybe they’ll relieve. We’ll see

From purchase to delivery, etrailer was amazing. Thanks for making everything easy.
Was a great fit for the Tacoma SX model.

Wow! I am sorry you had a bad experience with the cargo box. Thule is one of our most trusted brands so forgive me if I sound surprised. Can you give me more information about why the box is crappy? I am happy to help!
Looks nice
One of the hinges were broken when I received the item
Perfect! Just what we were hoping for.

No complaints, the Sidekick is a lower end cargo carrier but that is reflected in the price and it suits my needs just fine.
