It's your car, it's safe to assume you can do what you want with it. Of course the casa will say you can put a basket because they make a killing selling accessories (roof baskets included).

But the official word from the factory is NO. And the factory is the also the one that stipulates the installing of the Forbid Loading stickers on the rails. The mounting system of the roof rail is designed to carry the roof rail only (you can verify this with the factory). Any weight in excess of that is beyond the limits of the roof rail and any damage will not be covered by the factory warranty. The fact that it can survive the occasional loading doesn't automatically mean it was designed for such (unlike the load rated roof rails of the Crosswind or Pajero or Fortuner, for example). However, the dealer may honor your warranty claim at their expense (they will no longer inform the factory of the claim) if they are the ones that sold you the roof basket should any damage arise from its installation and use.

Remember that the weight on the roof rail is not just a product of the load itself but also of the forces that affect the vehicle like hard braking and sharp turns which can increase the weight acting on the rails. AFAIK, the gutters are still the factory recommended attachment points for extra luggage gear (roof boxes, roof baskets, etc.).

Thanks bro for the enlightenment, will just load it light items next time.

Matagal na ang front facing option. Since 2004 facelift pa yun.

....Kung out of town trips tapos maraming gamit, ok talaga merong roof basket para more space sa cabin, pero mas advisable na roof basket yung naka attached sa roof gutter, hindi talaga pwede sa roof rail lang hindi safe, disadvantage lang ng may roof basket hirap linisin ang ibabaw
