Question:
Trying to avoid buying cross bars since the factory side rails are in place Is there a roof basket that can instal directly on 2016 RAV4 side rails
asked by: Patrick B
Expert Reply:
We do have an available selection of roof cargo baskets that are designed to mount to just the factory side rails on your 2016 Toyota RAV4.
I recommend the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket # SPS4560-1101. This basket does not need crossbars and will clamp around the factory raised side bars with the included adapters. The basket measures 60 inches long, 45 inches wide and 5 inches deep. I have attached a video demonstration on this product so you can see exactly how it works.
I just recommend adding some tie down straps like # RRRTD55P or a cargo net like # CS54FR to secure your cargo to the basket.
