## Description

Compact roof box, ideal for small loads such as camping gear or golf clubs.

Review: Mini Cooper Countryman - Perfect size - I bought this because: 1) I needed the extra space to go camping, but didn't need a something too huge. 2) I have a Mini Cooper Countryman and it can't be too long. This is the perfect length. 3) Thule makes quality products. 4) I needed it to be narrow enough to be able to put my Thule Bike rack on the roof too. It does require assembly. I did it by myself, but it would be much easier if someone could steady it while putting the hinges on. But I propped it up, and did it. Locks must be engaged for it to close. It doesn't snap lock, but that's ok....you're gonna lock it anyway. Mini and BMW cross rails are very thick and round. The U-Bolt will fit, but you have to get it to catch. A longer/deeper U-Bolt for be easier. (But this works, so there is that). Taking it off and putting it on is a one person job. It's light, so even my 80 year old day could throw it up there. (Don't worry, he won't!) Don't over pack it. My tent, 2 sleeping bags, some duraflame logs, and a folding chair is what I can comfortably get it in. I probably could have stuffed another blanket it in, but I didn't want to crack it. It's sturdy, but it's not metal or hard carpon fiber. So it has some pliability. Just don't try to bend it in any extreme, and it will last. Aerodynamics:. You have a big cargo box on your roof. My Mini can handle it, but there is no reason to try to shake it off either. Drive like you have a cargo box on the roof, and you'll be fine. I store it in my garage rafters.
Review: Great Unit - I purchased the Thule 682 Sidekick Rooftop Cargo Box in August 2011 for the purpose of hauling two golf bags with clubs when I hit the road for extended trips. I own a Toyota 4-Runner and for whatever reason my wife and I seem to fill the cargo area of the 4-Runner up with a lot of stuff when we take an extended road trip (three weeks or so). Golf clubs take up a lot of room so I purchased the Sidekick to free up space inside my SUV. Glad I did. I just returned after a 3,200 mile trip and found the rooftop carrier rode securely and was easy to access. It made no noise while driving, and didn't interfere with the handling of the vehicle. It holds two bags with golf clubs perfectly....even had room to store our golf shoes. It was fairly easy to put together, although I did need my wife's help in attaching one of the hinges securing the top cover to the lower panel during assembly. It doesn't weigh much....I was able to install and uninstall from vehicle easily by myself. During the last trip with it aboard I drove through some heavy rains caused by Tropical Storm Lee. The interior stayed dry....no leaks. I'm very happy with it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it fit Honda CRV 2006?**
A: Hi Rudy ....I don't know the dimentions of a CRV 2006, but I measured our RAV.  We have a roofrack that is 38 inches across, and we have a sunroof.  The Thule fit nicely on the roofrack and it was small enough that it sat behind the sunroof. (when the sunroof was open, we could see out and theThule was'nt in the way)   There was room in the back to lift the tailgate without hitting the Thule.  There was room inside the Thule for a garment bag and two carry-on size pieces of luggage.  Hope this helps....

**Q: I am moving across the country, trying to fit as much as possible in my small camry, how many suitcases of clothes could this cargo box hold?**
A: Suitcases would not be the best use of space.  We found that form fitting things backpacks, duffel bags, and other odds and ends work best.  We put the suitcases in the car.   This cargo top is nice sized but not huge.  I actually wish I bought the next larger size up so we would not have to take such great care filling it up to get the most possible stuff in it per square inch :)

**Q: Will it fit ford explorer 2011?**
A: I think yes I used have explorer 2004 that look good on it becuz 2004 is small than ur 2011 is big it will make look small and could fit two cargo on it  my cargo size is Small there have different size to pick

**Q: Will the Thule sidekick u-mounts fit on the Thule aeroblade rack bars**
A: Good question.  I would think it would be close.  I am using these rackbars http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OWTSTI/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This might be a question for Thule support.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Nice Solid Cargo Box at a Reasonable Price
*by M***R on May 23, 2007*

After doing some research and reading reviews on various cargo boxes, I decided on the reasonably-priced Sidekick. I'm glad I chose this particular cargo box for a couple of reasons: 1) it is solidly-built and well-constructed; 2) it is affordable - particlarly if you only plan on using it a few times a year; and 3) it is not too big, as many cargo boxes tend to be - 8 cubic feet is plenty for family trips to store things you don't need until you get to the beach, for example. Assembly was pretty simple. I recommend you read the instructions ahead of time and get a few tools ready. I needed a helper for a few minutes while I got the hinges fastened (my 5 year-old did fine!) but otherwise it was a one-person job. The pair of locks work well and seem solid enough. Just so I had no surprises on our first trip, I put the cargo box on my Dodge Magnum and drove around with it for a few days in town. It is a solid product...no wind noise to speak of and doesn't affect the way the car drives at all. In summary, it looks fine, works fine and costs hundreds less than most cargo boxes. One final suggestion: measure the height of your garage door to make sure your car (with box mounted) will fit! It is so much nicer loading the car for a trip the night before and leaving it in the garage rather than loading up the morning of...in the driveway. Just as an example, my Magnum is a big car and I have 5 inches clearance under my standard-sized garage door opening and under the door opener.
