Thule Sidekick: A Compact Roof Box for Small Cars

Are you looking for a compact roof box that can securely store your camping gear or other items while traveling? Look no further than the Thule Sidekick, a lightweight and easy-to-install roof box designed specifically for small cars.

The Thule Sidekick comes with two lock cores to keep its contents safe and secure. The lid opens from the passenger side only, but features spring-loaded hinges that make it easy to open and stay open while loading or unloading your gear. This roof box is ideal for storing two medium-sized golf bags or other bulky items that wouldn't fit in a small car.

One of the standout features of the Thule Sidekick is its compact design. It's lightweight and easy to store, making it perfect for small cars with limited space. While it may require some assembly before installation, the well-written instructions make it a straightforward process.

The Thule Sidekick comes with U-bracket type mounting hardware, two hinges, weatherproofing foam strip, two lock cores, and vinyl stickers to cover unused mounting holes. This comprehensive kit ensures that you have everything you need to get started.

In my experience, the Thule Sidekick has proven to be a reliable and versatile roof box. I've used it on several camping trips, storing items such as traction mats, small shovels, spare footpumps, tarps, ground cloths, sunshade tarps and poles, dry bags with extra food, and even half of a small step stool.

One of the benefits of the Thule Sidekick is its ability to hold a lot of gear without taking up too much space. The deep ribs on the bottom of the box provide added stiffness, ensuring that it can withstand the weight of your camping equipment.

While it's not possible to fit everything you own in the Thule Sidekick, it's perfect for storing extra gear or items that you don't need immediate access to. And with its lightweight design, it's easy to remove and store when not in use.

Overall, the Thule Sidekick is a great option for anyone looking for a compact roof box that can securely store their gear while traveling. Its ease of installation, versatility, and reliability make it an excellent choice for camping enthusiasts and anyone who needs extra storage space on the go.
