In order to carry the Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box # TH615 on your 2018 Toyota Highlander you will need crossbars that are perpendicular to your vehicle body so that the box can be parallel with the vehicle body. I really like the Yakima JetStream roof rack system because the crossbars are higher quality with that aero-style design and the legs have adjustments so you get the best fit possible. I'm guessing you have a naked roof but in the event that you do have the flush mount rails I'll list the roof rack parts for both.
Naked Roof
60" JetStream Bars - Black # Y00426
BaseLine Towers - # Y28TR
Fit Kit - # Y06130
Flush Rails
50" JetStream Bars - Black # Y00425
SkyLine Towers - # Y53TR
Landing Pad 16 - # Y00242
If you'd like to add locks to the roof rack then you will need the kit # Y07204 which works for either roof rack setup.
