We have a couple of videos featuring an Infiniti G35 but no hitch installations. Fish Wiring can be a little cumbersome, but I have included a video demonstrating the technique. I have also inlcuded an FAQ article on trailer hitch installation tips that you might find helpful. Finally, I have included the installation details for the Curt Trailer Hitch, # 247482. The instructions include a brief explanation on the fish wire technique as well. view full answer...
The issue you are experiencing is common. What you will have to do is after securing the top clips on a trunk mount carrier such as the Passage # TH910XT you will need to open the trunk slightly, get the bottom hooks in place and shut the trunk lid. I have to do this on both of my vehicles in order to install the lower hooks. And as Billy Dee Williams said, Works every time. view full answer...
There isn't a specific place the side hooks have to go on the Thule Gateway trunk mount bike carrier # TH88JV. If they will stay in place lower or higher then it is acceptable to place them there. The side straps help prevent the rack from sliding left or right. If you can, tighten them both at the same time or go back and forth tightening one then the other until both are sufficiently tight. view full answer...
