Hi Peter!
It's definitely possible to have a roof box with the Kuat Switch 4 # KU94FR, but it is going to depend greatly on the length of your crossbars. Do you know how long they are by chance?
If they are on the short side, you could replace them with something like Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - Qty 2 # Y35AB. This is a full roof rack with 60" bars and would give you plenty of room for something like the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Nano-Texture # Y95AV, which is 35" wide.

Hey Peter, did you get a chance to check the length of your crossbars on the Highlander? Once you confirmed that, were you able to fit the SkyBox next to your Kuat Switch 4? Your setup details could really help others trying to run both at the same time.
