Default Re: Thule Boxes or SKIGUARD

Hello, here in Norway we have Skiguard.
A lovely box that sit very low on the roof and with the same colour like the car, it looks very nice. Skigueard 950 is the moest aerodynamic roof box.

I have some nice pic. of 950 on the Allroad. How do I post pictures??

Do yourself a favor and check out the Yakima boxes. The mounting system is *significantly* easier than the Thule. Basically, I balance the box (18 cubic foot) on my head, slide it onto the bars, slide it back 6 inches to engage the mounting system, open the box and close 4 handles. Takes longer to write than to do.

Very different than the Thule system.

Default Thule vs Yakima

I don't find Thule that much harder to put on my rails than you describe. I of course think the Thule boxes are better looking, but in the end everyone should purchase whatever they're the most comfortable with.
