ML 350
I purchased the roof box 450 with my ML350. You also have to purchase the basic mounting bars as well (about $300). It took me about an hour to read the instructions and mount it. You will definitely need two people to mount it. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of stuff, I was able to cram into it. I'm very happy with the purchase, it looks great and doesn't add much compartment noise on the highway at 70MPH. Roof Box storage is my next problem. I'm trying to create a lifting system to store it on my garage ceiling.

hi can you send me picture of your SUV how it looks with roof Box fitted.I also want to know how did you fix it. I mean did you first fix the mounting bars to the roof box and then took entire thing to the top and fixed it or not. Does your Car have a panoramic roof ? I am sure you must be driving on highways at a speed more than 70mph and does it make noise which you do not like. Give me these finer details and oblige.

450 roof box manual

I picked up a used 450 roof box but it is missing the manual. Would someone be able to scan it or point me in the direction of a digital copy.
Thanks
