Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Specs

Sturdy, Dual-Side-Opening Lid

yakima skybox dual opening

The SkyBox NX lid opens from both sides so you can easily access cargo from the driver's side or passenger's side of your vehicle. If you are parked on a busy street, in a tight parking lot, or even next to a campground picnic table, you have the option of opening the lid from the side of the vehicle that works best for you.


The fortified lid has an easy-access edge and spring-loaded hinges that allow for smooth, one-handed operation. Also, since the lid is extra-stiff, it helps reduce road noise and vibration. Finally, it has a nano-texture finish that helps guard against dings and scratches when you're on the road or when the box is in storage.


Built-In Security

yakima skybox security

The SkyBox has security latches on both sides to ensure the lid is completely closed and locked. This system prevents you from removing the key from the lock unless all 3 internal latches are engaged. That way, you are prevented from removing the key and driving off with an unlocked box. Also, the SKS lock core can be swapped out to make all your Yakima gear keyed alike.


Universal Clamp-On Mounting Hardware

yakima skybox clamp installation

The SkyBox installs with mounting clamps that slide along tracks in the floor of the box. These clamps fit most crossbar styles and they adjust for different crossbar spreads. To adjust the clamps, loosen the knobs with the included torque tool and slide them to the desired location. Then, tighten the knobs and close the clamps around your crossbars.

3 things- & I wish they had a 4.5 star option… I would have given that .

#1- this is the BEST roof box( for me )I have ever seen/ owned and I’ve had Thule pulse and Force boxes and other Yakima’s . I like the textured finish - looks rugged and speak at the same time. The metal tubular frame on interior really helps with the rigidity of the ABS plastic. The lever opening and closing is very nice especially because it clicks when closed so your not jamming the key hoping all guides are lined up like in the Thule pulse.. also the squareish lines match my 2nd gen Tundra wonderfully

#2- etrailer has always been a Go Too for me mainly due to their excellent customer service . Their response time is excellent and the team is very knowledgeable and eager to help.

#3- only reason for the non 5 star review is shipping took 7-8 days longer than expected … which threw a wrench in personal travel plans… I ordered this item through etrailer and not Yakima due to expected delivery date… didn’t work out. However the item did arrive in excellent condition when it arrived .

If you’re reading this review to see if The Sky Box NX is worth the money then hell yes it is …& would I purchase it again through etrailer… probably ;) they are great people and feels good to support them.

We are thrilled with our purchase! Ordering from etrailer was a pleasure and saved us over $160 in shipping costs. The packaging provided excellent protection and there was not a mark on our roof box. The Yakima SkyBox NX 18 is a welcome addition to our 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The fit on our vehicle was perfect and the 18 cu ft. capacity of the box is impressive. We were able to fit a 3 piece luggage set (Full Size suitcase, Carry On, and small roller bag) as well as a jogging stroller for our 3 year old. Highly Recommend A++



by:

This is my first box. I have been using bags previously. Man I wish I upgraded sooner. This was a breeze to install, even with the aftermarket Prinsu roof rack. Just had to slide some bars around, and I got a really nice low profile install.



by:

Installed Yakima SkyBox NX 18 as advertised. Fit vehicle (Outback with factory bars) perfectly. Careful not to open the clamps to much during first install. You might scratch or dent your roof. Would be good if 3/16 hex wrench was included for horizontal adjustment of bar clamps. Will see it the hinges and fasteners stand the test of time, but it looks like Yakima has a well thought out product.



by:

I hate writing ratings, BUT, this product is great. The finish on the product is very impressive.

Delivery….the driver called several hours before delivery to give me an estimated delivery time, kept me posted and was wonderful. Etrailer products are great.

Highly recommend



by:

Arrived Friday for Memorial Day weekend. Was looking forward to using it for a camping trip but, could not get either side to unlock. Tried both keys numerous times. No luck. Have to wait until Tuesday to call customer service. Not Happy.



by:

I consulted with Josh to confirm my order and discuss some of the details on fitment. He answered them all! Skybox NX 18 arrived on time and in perfect condition. 2023 Hyundia Santa Fe Hybrid Limited.

Safely delivered without damage. Lauren at etrailer.com made this a very smooth transaction! Thank you!

  • Will The Yakima SkyBox 16 Rooftop Cargo Box Fit a 2007 Audi Q7
    The Yakima SkyBox NX 16 # Y95AV will fit Thule and Yakima crossbars and should fit the factory crossbars on a 2007 Audi Q7. Crossbars are the bars that run across the vehicle, from passenger to driver side. If you do not already have factory crossbars or need a roof rack, Yakima has a complete system for your needs.

  • Will the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Roof Cargo Box Fit on a 2017 Honda Pilot
    There are a few fit concerns when it comes to roof cargo boxes. The main concerns are the roof rack crossbars and rear hatch clearance. The Yakima Skybox NX 16, # Y95AV, will fit on virtually any roof rack, so this shouldn't be a concern unless you have a significantly larger aftermarket roof rack. The SkyBox NV 16 will fit crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide by 1-11/16 inches tall. Since roof cargo boxes are not tested on specific vehicles, the best way to answer the question about rear...

  • Will Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Cargo Box # Y95AV Fit a 2009 Toyota Prius and Clear the Rear Hatch
    To determine if the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Cargo Box, part # Y95AV, will fit the roof of your 2009 Toyota Prius and clear the rear hatch you will need to take a measurement on your vehicle's roof. The minimum clearance measurement to determine rear hatch clearance is taken from the center of the front crossbar of the roof rack on your vehicle to the seam of the rear hatch on your Prius. That measurement will need to be 47 inches or more for the roof cargo box to clear the rear hatch on your...

  • Why Yakima Roof Cargo Box Shakes on Roof at Speed
    What you are experiencing with your Yakima Skybox NX 16 cargo box # Y95AV is wind buffeting. This is turbulent wind that comes off of your windshield and is causing your cargo carrier to shake. Motorcyclists experience this a lot too as the wind comes off of the fairing and hits the helmet and shakes it around. The only solution is to move the cargo box around on the roof. Try moving it further back and if that does not work try forward. Basically, you have to find the sweet spot that will...

  • Will the Yakima SkyBox 16 Fit on a 2017 Toyota RAV4
    We do not have specific fit information for a 2017 Toyota RAV4 but I can tell you that you'll need 45" from the front crossbar to any obstruction (typically where the rear hatch meets the roof) to make the Yakima SkyBox NV 16 # Y95AV fit. You'll want to measure how tall your antenna sticks up compared to the height of your bars on the roof as well, as that antenna may not interfere with the box at all. I've linked a photo that details these measurements as well, and the box clamps can...

  • How Tight Should Clamps of Yakima Roof Cargo Box Be
    There isn't a set torque figure or anything for tightening down the clamps of the Yakima cargo boxes like the Skybox NX 16 part # Y95AV that you mentioned. Basically you just want to torque them down to hand tight.

  • Will Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Fit with 2016 Audi Q5 Opened Hatch
    Yes, the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Rooftop Cargo Box - # Y95AV will fit and still allow hatch clearance on your 2016 Audi Q5. If you're like me and like to verify on my end as well (just to double check) all you need to do is measure from the center of your front crossbar to the line where your roof and hatch meet. As long as this distance is at least 47" the Skybox NX 16 will allow you to completely open up the hatch!

  • Roof Rack Crossbar Compatibility of Yakima NX SkyBox 16
    The Yakima SkyBox NX 16, part # Y95AV will fit crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide and 1-11/16 inches tall with bar spreads between 24-36 inches apart. The bar spread is the measurement of the distance from the center of one bar to the center of the other. The Brightlines crossbars measure 3 inches wide by 1 inch tall, so the SkyBox 16 will work perfectly for you, if the bar spread is within the mentioned parameters. I've linked to a product demonstration video featuring the SkyBox.

  • Optimal Crossbar Spread For Yakima SkyBox NX 16 part # Y95AV
    Using a wider spread would give you a slightly more solid attachment with cargo boxes like the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 part # Y95AV. It's totally safe to use the 24 inch spread as it was tested for that and it worked fine but if you can get it out to 36 inches it would be a little more secure and might help calm some nerves if you're worried about it.

  • How to Determine if Yakima Skybox NX 16 Will Fit on 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Clear Antenna
    Here's how you'll be able to determine if the Yakima Skybox NX 16 part # Y95AV will fit on your roof without interfering with the antenna. Measure from the center crossbar back to the antenna. If that distance is more than 47 inches you won't have to worry at all. Otherwise, you might have to unscrew the antenna on your 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee when you go to use the cargo box. Sometimes the antenna doesn't sit up higher than the top of the crossbars and clearance isn't an issue.

  • How to Determine if Yakima Skybox NX 16 Will Allow Rear Hatch of 2015 Honda CR-V to Open
    Here's how you will figure out if the cargo box will interfere with the rear hatch of your vehicle. You will need to slide your front crossbar as far forward as possible (if it's adjustable), and then you will need to measure from the center of the bar to the seam of the rear hatch. If that measurement you took is 47 inches or more, the Yakima Skybox NX 16 you referenced, part # Y95AV will fit without hatch interference.

    Yes! I recommend the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Roof Cargo Box # Y95AV, which is confirmed to fit the factory crossbars on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon. Your factory crossbars have a spread of 30.5 inches, which is perfectly compatible with the Y95AV, which requires between 24 and 36 inches.

  • Will The Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Fit On 2016 Acura MDX With Factory Rack?
    Yes, the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Roof Cargo Box # Y95AV will fit on your 2016 Acura MDX with the factory roof rack. When installing the box on your roof you need to make sure that the bars are set as far forward as you can. Then, when loading up the SkyBox, make sure to mount it as far forward as possible too. I always open my rear hatch when I'm installing the roof box just to make sure I don't have to remount anything. I've included our review video of the box if you wanted to get a closer look!
