Rooftop Cargo Carriers

[Legolas]

I just picked up a 2014 Honda CRV to use as a toad......i want to put a cartop carrier on it...i have tried two brands (one from Cabelas and one from Summit Racing) niether fit properly on the Hondas roofrack they were to short, 57 inches. The longer ones I have found, Thule Force XT 16 cu ft is 74.75 inches long but my research seems to indicate that the back of the carrier will be to long to fit without impacting the roof antenna.

I would really appreciate any information leading to a carrier that will fit.

I have an Element, and have a Honda cargo box. The attachment points are adjustable and I assume these will fit the CRV as well. While there is no definitive manufac markings that I remember, but it looks to be made by Thule for Honda.

The problem I have is that the CRV has an antenna on the roof in the rear just in front of the rear hatch opening and all the carriers I have looked at aree too long when attached and intrude into the antenna.
