Diagram

Cargo boxes, bags, and baskets are great for transporting gear on your vehicle's roof. A cargo box has the added benefits of an aerodynamic shape that reduces drag and wind noise, a hard shell to protect your gear, and a higher degree of weather resistance. And you can latch and lock a cargo box for added protection against theft.


Aerodynamic Cargo Box with Gloss Black Finish


Profile18B case

With 18 cu ft of space, the Malone Profile18B has enough room for sports equipment, camping gear, or luggage for 3 to 4 people. The aerodynamic design helps reduce wind noise and drag. The locking lid opens from the passenger or driver side, and it's designed to provide clearance when you open your rear hatch. Quick-attach clamps accommodate most crossbar styles and spreads so you can install the box in minutes without tools. And the durable yet lightweight ABS plastic construction helps to prevent warping, denting, or cracking.


Sturdy, Dual-Side-Opening Lid


duel side open

The Profile18B lid opens from both sides for easy access to your cargo. This means your gear is always close at hand whether you mount the box closer to the driver or passenger side. The extra-stiff lid helps reduce road noise and vibration, and it guards against dents and scratches. Built-in gas strut hinges make it easier to open and close the lid, and also help to keep the lid open while loading and unloading.


Built-In Lock


lock key

The box includes a built-in lock on both sides to secure your gear. The locks also deter theft of the box itself because it denies access to the mounting hardware. The key can only be removed once it is in the locked position, ensuring the box is securely locked and safe for transportation. 3 locking points on both sides keep the lid secure when locked.


Universal Clamp-On Mounting Hardware


Profile18B Mounting Clamps

The Profile18B installs with inward-facing quick-attach mounting clamps. These clamps fit most crossbar styles, and they are inserted into the slots along the floor of the box to accommodate different crossbar spreads. To adjust a clamp, loosen the knobs and move the clamp to the desired location. Then tighten the knobs down to close the clamp around your crossbar.

Arrived in great shape. Packaging was amazing. Didn’t expect it to be on a pallet. Looking forward to using it. Thanks.



by:

It was missing hardware when it arrived, and I called etrailer in a panic. Our big family camping trip to the Tetons was in days and our stuff wouldn't fit in our new car without a roof box. They responded immediately and sent the hardware and it arrived in days. Fantastic customer service. And this roof box has been excellent. It looks great on our car, so I haven't taken it off since I installed it last year. It's been all over the West, through heavy rains, dumping snow, high winds - and the inside is always perfectly dry. I love this box and would definitely buy again.



by:

perfect size! and very easy to install, love the fact that despite it's is not too heavy and easy for one person to install in the car.



by:

Just received the package and product arrived in perfect condition days before it was scheduled. Already installed, all parts are in perfect condition.



by:

This transaction was seamless I actually reached out for more information and received courteous and helpful infirmstiob



by:

I like the size of the box - will fit skis up to about 190cm, but one of the spring loaded opening arms has been a problem from day one. The angle of the knuckle is not square and it pops off all the time. No luck with getting any sort of fix from the manufacturer.



by:

Great sturdy product. And easy to instal on top of 2019 Subaru accent. The three lock point mechanism seems strong too. Very happy!



by:

High quality, shipped fast, excellent packaging, and etrailer had the best price I could find. Recommended.



by:

Very happy with this roof cargo box. The side logo stickers fell off almost immediately, but I dont care about that. Just did a 3 week trip out west and this was invaluable as extra storage space.



by:

A great cargo box, looks good and works well.



by:

I love this roof top cargo box! We put it on our SUV at the beginning of the summer and took it off at the end of October. It went through torrential rain storms, hail, days of soaking rain and there was not one drop of water inside. Fits great on my 2011 Toyota Highlander with factory installed roof rack. I love that it opens from both sides. Really a great buy considering other brands go for twice the price and this one works wonderfully!



by:

quick-attach clamps are made with a galvanized screw that became corroded and locked up



by:

It looks like a great roof top cargo box. The grey color looks awesome. I can’t wait to install it on my car. It was delivered on a pallet and it was well surrounded by a sturdy box. It came with no damage.



by:

Easy to install and remove without tools. My garage is too low to accommodate suv with carrier in place.

Able to reinstall in minutes hand on tighten clamps hear the click

Good to go



by:

Super easy to mount on my Malone Microsport trailer. Will add lots of extra space for fishing/camping items. I like that you can open it from either side. My only complaint is the top seems flimsy when opening and closing. Admittedly this is my first cargo box that I have owned so they may all be like this. You have to make sure you use both hands, spread as far apart as you can when opening it. As long as you use both hands to open and close it this shouldn't be an issue. I can't wait to load it up and try it out.



by:

I’m ultra-pleased with my Malone Profile18b cargo box! I scoured the internet researching these things. I think I looked at every large capacity model around 18 cu ft for my Nissan Armada. There’s lots of good ones out there to choose from. I almost bought a Thule Motion XT, but I decided to go with this Malone cargo box because it had the specs I was looking for at a much better price (18 cu ft for under $xx.xx!). After examining it closely, it seems to be fantastic quality, fit and finish it great, and functions perfectly. It opens and locks from both sides—and new for this year, it has an awesome new 1-click dial attach system that installs and removes easily and holds strong.
Also, It’s one of the BEST LOOKING rooftop cargo boxes out there. The Italian shape and glossy black finish looks very high-end.
For the money, you can’t beat this box. If you’re considering a rooftop cargo box, don’t hesitate on getting this Malone.

After a year later, my Malone cargo box is still working great. Ive very happy with it. Ive gotten good at mounting it myself too. Two people are preferred, but one person is very doable.



by:

Disclaimer, this is not a product review as much as it is an etrailer review. I ordered this product and when it came in, one of the support struts was broken during shipment. I contacted etrailer and they said they would get in touch with Malone to get me a new support strut. After 4 days of not hearing back from them (etrailer) I called again and finally got ahold of someone. They said I need to contact Malone directly about any warranty items. I called Malone and they said any shipping damages need to be taken care of by seller. I emailed etrailer again stating that THEY need to take care of the issue. Still have not heard back from them and I am needing to use the carrier for a trip coming up in 4 days. I HIGHLY doubt I will get the part needed to use my brand new carrier for the trip. 100% would NOT recommend ordering anything from etrailer.



by:

This is a nice box. I have not used it yet takes a little time to get everything centered and put in place. Had a plastic film over the glass finished so nothing got scratched. Just remember if you have a sunroof like I do you will not be able to use it because it cannot lift up high enough to get open.

See what our Experts say about this Malone Roof Box

  • Compatibility of Rooftop Cargo Box with 2018 Honda Pilot Factory Crossbars
    The SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box - Roof Mount - 18 cu ft - Black # SR7018 fits crossbar spreads that are 23-5/8", 25-7/8", 27-7/8", and 29-7/8" on center. The spread on your factory roof rack I believe is the same as the aftermarket options at 31.5 inches on center. If this is the case, the Vista XL will not be compatible. For a roof box with that similar capacity and the mounting location compatibility, you may be interested in the Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black...

  • What Is the Height of the Malone Profile 18B Rooftop Cargo Box?
    From the lowest point to the highest point on the Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box # MPG911 it measures 15-3/4" tall. Any additional height from your crossbars would have to be added after the fact as we won't have that information. Seeing as though you only have 15-5/8" total of clearance I'd say it's safe to say that you won't be able to keep the cargo box installed when you park your car in the garage.

  • Will the Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails Fit a 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon and Malone Cargo Box
    Yes, the Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails # C18118 will fit your 2022 Subaru Outback Touring XT with raised roof rails. This would then provide the crossbars needed to use the Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box # MPG911. The Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box # MPG911 uses clamps to attach to the crossbars so the fact that the Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails # C18118 doesn't have channels doesn't make much of a difference for this use.

  • Can I Drill Holes into the Trunx # TRX34FR with a Crossbar Spread Longer than 31 Inches?
    I have a great rooftop box option for you, but we do not recommend drilling into the Trunx Cargo Box - 18 Cu Ft. # TRX34FR with a 32-1/2 bar spread. This is because the maximum allowed crossbar spread for the # TRX34FR with drilling is 31 inches apart. It is always strongly recommended not to exceed any limits put in place by the manufacturer because doing so can not only cause damage and void warrantees; it can also be dangerous. On top of that, we have not installed the # TRX34FR with...

  • Using the Moon Roof on a Limited Edition 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe with a Roof Rack or Roof Box
    Any roof rack will impact the performance and usability of a sun or moon roof. Using a roof box like the Malone 18B Profile, part # MPG911 will create more difficulties because of its clamps. I don't recommend using the sun roof or moon roof with a roof rack or roof box equipped.

Therefore, in order to verify fit you'll need to note the shape of your crossbars, then measure the spread and size.

  • Recommended Waterproof Storage for Boat Roof
    I have a solution for you, but there are a number of different reasons that a cargo box is not going to work on that roof. To start, all of the boxes that would allow you to have 40" space between the cross bars are going to be extremely long; the Yakima SkyBox 21 # Y07337 will accommodate up to 42" crossbar spacing, but is 92" long and 36" wide. All of the boxes available that are short enough and narrow enough that are able to fit in that space require between roughly 24" and 35-3/8",...

    The Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box - 18 cu ft - Black # MPG911 should fit your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek without an issue, but there are a few things you will want to check to verify. This box fits crossbars that are no wider than 3" and no taller than 1-3/8". You also want to make sure you have a crossbar spread of between 24" - 36" and a hatch clearance of at least 21".

  • Will Two 33" x 29" x 12" Boxes Fit Inside the Malone Profile18B Cargo Box
    It would be a tight fit but based on the dimensions of the Malone cargo box # MPG911 and your 33 x 29 x 12 inch boxes I believe you could get them to fit in the box. Another option is to use a roof basket, # Y07080-82, and a cargo net, # C18201. A basket will be easier to store since it won't take up as much space. A box though can be locked so there are advantages to either option.

  • Comparing Roof Rack Cargo Boxes Malone Profile 18b and Yakima Skybox
    Both of the cargo boxes you mentioned are solid choices but I would recommend the Malone Profile 18b part # MPG911 over the Yakima SkyBox # Y07336 if for no other reason than it will save you some money. Both boxes are very similar and both use a simple clamp design for an easy install. Check out the review video links I attached for both boxes and see if there are any features of the Yakima that would justify the cost difference for you.

  • Will Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box MPG911 Fit 2019 Chrysler Pacifica Stow N Place Roof Rack?
    The Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box # MPG911 can accommodate a crossbar spread of 25" to 40". Based on the limited information I could find on the Stow N Place roof rack your 2019 Chrysler Pacifica uses, it allows you to position the bars with either a 27" or 40" crossbar spread. You can always verify this on your Pacifica if you are unsure of these measurement.
