Hey Ian, thanks for reaching out!
The Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack # RRRVP37 is a great option for your 2014 Toyota Highlander, and I recommend using the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning # RR32133 along with the Angled Up Mounting Brackets # RR32123 so the awning won't make contact with your roof, and you have enough room for your roof cargo box.
If you don't already have a Yakima cargo box, I recommend picking up the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 # Y95AV because it's an updated version of the popular SkyBox line that Yakima is known for. The SkyBox NX line has a few upgrades like a removeable installation tool for the mounting brackets and opening mechanism that makes it easier to use, plus the design of the box is updated to be a little more modern.

Hey Ian, how did the setup with the Rhino-Rack roof rack and Sunseeker awning work out on your Highlander? Were you able to fit the Yakima SkyBox alongside it without any clearance issues? Your update could make it easier for others planning a similar combo.
