Question:

Hello, I have a 2019 Acura MDX Hybrid that has factory installed side rails . Purchased after market cross rails already. Want to buy either the Yakima Sky Box 16 Cargo Box or the Thule Motion XT Cargo Box. Will either of these boxes fit my vehicle?

Yes, both the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 # Y95AV and the Thule Motion XT 16 # TH629706 will fit your 2019 Acura MDX. I confirmed this with both manufacturers.

I personally like the look of the Motion XT more than the SkyBox. The Motion XT is a little more aggressive and was designed around newer vehicle body styles. The SkyBox is a little more basic in the look design but is still just as functional.

The features of both boxes are pretty similar so it really boils down to what look you're going for. I've attached review videos for each that you can check out to get an idea both how they look on a vehicle but also get more of an in-depth experience with the different features.
