Take a step up from the Blacktop to the SkyBox with this next evolution of Yakima® premium cargo boxes.

  • 12 cubic feet is just enough for that extra gear that won't fit inside your vehicle
  • New aerodynamic design reduces drag, resulting in less noise and more stability
  • Lid is now 50% stiffer than other Yakima® cargo boxes for reduced vibration; one-handed opening and closing is as easy as pie
  • Rapid-fire installation is quickest and easiest yet—all adjusting and tightening is done from inside the box
  • Dual side opening conveniently allows the box to be opened from either the right or left side
  • Smooth-action support lets the lid lift effortlessly; wide-mouth opening is easy to load and unload
  • New lid shape is easy to grab regardless of the size of your hands
  • Super Latch Security ensures that the lid is secured to the base
  • Matte anti-scratch finish gives a stealth look to your vehicle
  • SkyBox series has integrated track system for accessories so you can protect and organize all your gear
  • SKS lock cores included
  • Fits round, square or most factory-rack crossbars, (sold separately); fits crossbar spreads as short as 24 inches

Please note: Yakima car rack products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

    Comments about Yakima SkyBox 12 Roof Box:

    The Yakima SkyBox 12 looks smaller on the display rack in the store than it actually is. Most surprising is the aerodynamics of the SkyBox. Expecting the wind to buffet and cause a lot of noise I was really surprised it rode the top of the roof with no increase in wind noise. Fully loaded or empty it was a quiet ride.
    Easy to attach and remove from the roof, stores great in the garage against the wall.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      Comments about Yakima SkyBox 12 Roof Box:

      This box is one of the smaller units out there, but it has more room than I expected. I chose it for its narrower profile to use at the same time as a bike rack or a kayak j-cradle. On a CRV (on 48" bars), this racks fits well next to a j-cradle kayak carrier. It is also one of the lighter units out there. I had no trouble loading it on the car without an assistant. Very fast to install or remove.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
