Can I drill new holes? I tried moving the roof rack bars but not enough adjustment.Factory holes in box have it on top of the radio antenna.

Drilling new holes shouldn't be a problem. I have my cargo box on a Rav4 with a rear roof-mounted antenna. I was able to find a combination of the pre-drilled holes and crossbar placement that had my box sitting just in front of the antenna. In that configuration though it puts the front of the cargo box out a bit over the forward crossbar, just over the top of the windshield. When you are loading items in the cargo box I'd try to keep the greatest weight in the back, over the crossbars, instead of in the nose of the box. Good luck!

I would think you could as long as the metal plates match with the new holes.

The only pre-drilled holes that come with it are on the bottom. So...from the factory, no? You may be able to drill your own holes in the back and do it yourself though.

The Trucker Antenna is "top loaded" or has what used to be called a "beer can" on it, to help tune the antenna, a little bulky and maybe prone to damage. To choose the best ask: Are you willing to cut a hole in the roof? If so I would recommend an NMO mount and antenna - these will give a solid, permanent install. I suggest this because an RV tends to find branches once in awhile and the NMO mounted won't get "swept" off the roof like a magnetic mount, and all your wiring is protected inside the body of the RV.

The holes are pre-drilled on the right side. You could possibly drill new holes on the other side yourself.

I have a 2011 streetglide and iput the mount on the bottom of box marked holes and drilled new holes that lined up with the holes in the mount. I felt it easier to drill the box instead of the mount.

Hi Jim, I did not see a hole for the antenna. I have taken the antenna off the car due to doing body work.You may have to customize your cover. I am sure a small cut in the cover should take care of it. Make sure you sew up the edges.

No holes had to be drilled in an installation on a 2007 and I do not believe the frame design has changed

Their are no holes drilled in the bars. The only area that is open is the ends which have a removable insert which a person can remove for bar end mirrors or possibly hiding wires(if you where to hide wiring inside these bars,which would be possible, holes would need to be drilled for different enter and exit holes for said wires)

There are no pre drilled holes and I wouldn't do it myself. I have had mine on for some time w/o any problems at all.

I custom made my own by cutting a hole where the front plate would be and then welded a 2" receiver to reinforced steel and mounted that to the frame rails.The receiver was positioned so it slightly protruded out the hole cut. This put the box higher and gave it a clean look.

The holes are one inch apart, I had to drill the mounting bracket to fit, easy fix.

No drilling required for 2014 Soul. The racks attach to the existing mount points on the roof.

Yes, very easy to do! The come with a little wrench to tighten them up or loosen them up.I personally have the wrench and the directions in the bag in the glove box as I don't envision taking them off nearly as much as it sound like you will? But, easy to do, well constructed cross bars, etc.Nice thing for you is I suspect the Thule cargo box has a way to connect to only the cross bars? That's a plus for you, as you can't get anything through the side rails of the brackets Hyundai mounts on the roof.Perhaps I need to look into one of those Thule cargo boxes?Good luck to you Sir!Art Yes, very easy to do!

You don't need to drill into the roof. There are existing anchors in your roof already. Remove the accessories caps from the roof and screw the rails into the anchors.

Maybe an inch or two higher than the existing bars. It's shorter than the antenna.

Mine went on a 2000 vulcan. No the holes weren't there. I also used longer grips due to the fact that the locating holes for the turn signal housings were in a slightly different location. Or you can drill new holes.
