The XTERRA Gets a ROOF BASKET!!! - Roof Basket Installation

What's up internet! In today's video, I show the processes and procedures that I took to install a roof basket (originally designed for a golf cart) onto the xterra! I have been wanting a roof basket that would sit between the bars of the Xterra's roof rack but most are a bit pricey, imo. This golf cart one was a bit less expensive and sits between the rack bars, just like I wanted! Thank you DIY - Auto & Photo for the video you made, otherwise I never would have found this!

I really wish I'd seen this before I bought my current roof rack. That looks great!

[@_moes_garage_]

Hey it happens.. and thanks, I love the way it looks too!

[@MaximumDIYGarage]

nicely done, Moe! The rack looks great! Almost factory look! DIY auto and photo is Stan, he’s a great guy!

[@_moes_garage_]

Yeah love that guy! Lol

[@89G]

Wow, that looks like it fits perfectly in there.

[@_moes_garage_]

It does. It's like it was ment to go in there. 🤣

[@89G]

@@_moes_garage_ agreed!!

[@SmallADVentures1973]

Looks great! I might give this a try myself on ours, nice tutorial 😊✌️

[@_moes_garage_]

Thanks! It really turned out better than I anticipated. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a roof basket.

[@SmallADVentures1973]

@_moes_garage_ we had one (and liked them) on our FJ Cruiser and XJ Cherokee before it, well probably want one on our current rig too as we get more into it. I'll just follow your steps, we've got the same truck (even the same color, lol 😆), ours is a 2012 🙂👍

[@_moes_garage_]

@@SmallADVentures1973 oh hey that's awesome! It's funny because the wife and I don't really like silver/grey cars but this one actually looks good in silver.

[@SmallADVentures1973]

@_moes_garage_ lol, yes it does 😆👍

[@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO]

Oh hi )) nice to see when more and more people using all this kind of projects and builds ! good idea to paint those u-bolts looks real nice ! any more plans to add more stuff on the roof basket ? or too soon to tell ? l

[@_moes_garage_]

Nothing in the works yet. But I do have other plans for the xterra. Stay tuned :)

[@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO]

@@_moes_garage_ Oh nice ! man can't wait to see whats next on this silver beast )

[@lindseyskinner2539]

Where can I get this basket??

[@_moes_garage_]

I got it from golf cart king. Link is in the description but I would suggest you google the part number to make sure that they still have the best price. When I first found the basket, it was on a different website for way more money. Good luck!

[@benladin626]

Hi! Is there wind noise from the rack when you drive at certain speeds?

[@_moes_garage_]

Hi, yes there is wind noise but not too bad in my opinion.

[@paatamaisuradze8903]

I want to like this. can you make it like a gift?

[@_moes_garage_]

Hey there! Unfortunately that's not in the cards right now. Thanks for watching!

[@baldbollocks]

$480 ...are you out of your mind?

[@_moes_garage_]

I spent $350... You gotta search for the best price on it. But anyway to me it was worth it. I use it a lot, also it's a lot cheaper than other options for the xterra.
