There are a couple options for a cargo box setup on your 2018 Nissan Murano SL with a bare roof. As far as the box, I recommend the Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box - 16 cu ft # Y95AV or the Yakima SkyBox 21 Rooftop Cargo Box - 21 cu ft # Y07337. The great thing about the SkyBoxes is that they include the SuperLatch system that ensures the lid is latched closed and locked. With this mechanism, the key cannot be removed unless the lid is closed properly. In addition, the SkyBoxes include 2 Same Key System (SKS) locks that secure gear in the box and secure the box to the crossbars.
With the Yakima SkyBox, you are correct that you will need a compatible crossbar system. For the most economical choice we carry, I recommend the following setup:
- Round 48" CrossBars for Yakima Roof Rack System # Y00408
- BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Naked Roofs # Y28TR
- RoundBar SL Adapter for Yakima BaseLine, SkyLine, TimberLine, and RidgeLine Towers # Y03536
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06126
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06138
- (Optional for extra security) Yakima Same-Key Lock Cores # Y07204
