Question:

Yakima Skybox NX 16 fitment. Will this product fit a 2018 Nissan Rogue with factory crossbars? I see the length is 79.5 inches which is considerably longer than the roof length and may not accommodate clearance on the rooftop antenna. Will this fit or do you have some recommendations?

Expert Reply:

To answer your first question, yes, the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Roof Cargo Box # Y95AV will fit the factory crossbars on your 2018 Nissan Rogue.

Now, in regard to the rooftop antenna, it looks like the antenna sits just below the rear crossbar on an '18 Rogue, but if not, you can take a quick measurement to find out if there will be any interference. Yakima does have measurements for rear hatch interference, but you can use the same thing for interference for a cargo box.

So, if the antenna does jut above the crossbar, what you can do is just measure from the center of your front crossbar to the edge of your rear antenna. If that measurement is inches or less, the SkyBox NX 16 # Y95AV will not interfere with the antenna.

If you need something with less clearance required, you could go with the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 Rooftop Cargo Box # Y07192 which only needs 45 inches to clear.

I have added links to installation instructions and video reviews for you to check out as well.
