Question:

I have the 2010 model of the fat cat 6 and these look like the mounts that it uses. Any idea if they would work for that model?

The replacement mounting hardware you will want for your 2010 version of the Yakima FatCat 6 # Y03088 is the Replacement Mounting Hardware for Yakima FatCat Ski and Snowboard Carrier # Y8860048. This is the replacement mount for the previous version of the FatCat 6.

If you would like to use the newer version of the FatCat mounting hardware, # Y8860078, my contact at Yakima says it will also work with your 2010 FatCat 6. This newer mount uses a strap to secure the foot to the crossbar rather than a bottom bracket.

The hardware you referenced is designed for the Yakima PowderHound, Big PowderHound, and FreshSesh.
