Has anyone had experience with trying to fit a Thule Boxter cargo box on their Highlander using factory or aftermarket crossbars? I've read that a few have successfully fit the Thule Atlantis 1800 (84"L) with aftermarket bars and it doesn't interfere with the rear spoiler once the tailgate is open. Based on reading the experience of the Atlantis 1800 and looking over the box specs here, I would assume the Boxter would also fit since the rear mounting depth is shorter. I'm just wondering if it also fits on OEM crossbars?
This box will be used to carry surf fishing rods up to 7' sections and beach accessories (chairs/umbrellas/nets). I would prefer the Thule Sprit at 90.5" long but the rear depth is too long at 24". The Thule Boxter at 87" long and rear depth of only 19" is my second best option although it's pretty pricey. If anyone has any other suggestions of a low profile box, or photos of a Boxter installed on a Highlander, it would be helpful. Thanks.
