The Karrite Road Rider Cargo Box uses a rather unique set of mounting straps to secure the cargo box to the roof of a vehicle. These are no longer available due to the age of the box nor would they allow you to attach it to the roof rack on your Toyota Rav4. In order to do this however you can use the Replacement Hardware Kit part # TH05603 which will work just fine with the Karrite Road Rider Cargo Box. In order to install this hardware kit you will need to center the cargo box on your two crossbars, mark holes on either side of the crossbar in the box, drill these holes out, and then install the u-bolts though the box and around the crossbars.
