Car top carrier help

I recently purchased the roof transport system for the 996 cab (thanks steven) I am looking for a box to attach to it. Can I use pretty much any universal box? Not looking to spend a lot here.
Thanks

Box?

What "box" are you looking for?

Most, if not everything, can be installed on crossbars. Yakima and Thule make everything needed to adapt and mount items to crossbar systems.

Hey Mitch,
No problem. Im glad it all worked out. I pretty sure the guy that I bought my car from was using a Thule, but I never actually saw it. Hope that helps.
Good Luck!!

Steve
