Not sure about the ski carrier, but I've been eyeing these aftermarket OEM clone crossbars on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N3446NC
They are a bit cheaper than the buying from the dealer, and look to be identical.
These are what I got, knockoffs but every it as identical and quality as the Subaru ones https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00N3446NC/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1484941095&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=forester+cross+bars&dpPl=1&dpID=41Bs4jKXBFL&ref=plSrch
I grabbed the Brightlines off Amazon when they were on sale for $70 a few months ago. They look identical to the OEM Aero bars, and even with the moonroof open, I honestly can't tell an audible difference between having them mounted or not.
Thank you :) The rack is this one by Subaru, I'm not sure on the crossbars but they look exactly like these.
There are a couple great videos on YouTube that show the crossbars you will need and how to install a cargo basket (not a box, but same idea applies).

I hadn't even looked at OEM but everyone seems to recommend them! This is very helpful in my decision. Thank you. Is this basically what you have?
