Default Looking for a roof-rack

I need a roof rack for my RX300 .. I just want one of those cargo box type of things but can't seem to find them for the RX300.

75Lbs on the roof rack is plenty for me , but I want it to hold up to highway driving as I am going to be traveling over 600 miles with them on and speeds of 75-100 .. I will slow down if I need to but you know how we get on the highway.

send me some links and email me if you have one for sale

I wanted to get some bike racks for my 2000 RX300. Lexus wanted $210 a piece. Went to my local Toyota dealer, looked at the Highlander cross-bars, ordered from Toyota for $135/piece. They are Yakima's and come with a piece that fits perfectly over the shape of the bars called a Mighty Mount. The Mighty Mount size is '23H'. From the mighty mount you can mount any Yakima product be it bike racks or cargo carriers and so on. You can order the Mighty Mount from Yakima directly or an outdoor sports dealer should carry them. Hope this helps.

Default Cargo Carrier

I actually have the factory roof rack on my RX300 but I am actually looking for the cargo carrier. I am sorry for any confusion .

My bad. I meant to say I too have the factory roof racks already installed on my 2000. The part I bought from Toyota was the actual bike rack portion made by Yakima. The bike rack and I assume cargo carrier for the Highlander fit our roof racks perfectly. The 23H Mighty Mount by Yakima allows you to add any Yakima product such as cargo carriers and kayak carriers. Hope I cleared up my confusing statement.
