Question:
I have a 21 VW Tiguan with a Thule Aero rack. I was thinking about adding a roof basket. Thule doesnt have a skinny basket although Yakima does. Will the Yakima SkinnyWarrior basket fit my Thule crossbars? The thought was to put a skinny rack on one side and a Yakima RoadShower and bike rack on the other. Is it do-able?

Hey Rob,
Yes, the Yakima SkinnyWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07014 would be compatible with your Thule crossbars. Depending on the length of your crossbars and the size of the bike rack you would be able to mount the roof basket (23" wide), bike rack, and RoadShower # Y79VR (6-1/8" wide).
