Today we have a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta and we're ready to test fit the Yakima FrontLoader Roof Mounted Bike Carrier, part number Y02103. We already have our bike rack together. Now we're ready to mount it up on the vehicle. We'll start by laying the bike rack up on top of our roof rack. We'll position the front head over the front crossbar and we'll position the rear clamp above our rear crossbar. We'll then turn the T handle on the front to tighten the front mount and we'll tighten the wing nut on the rear to tighten the rear clamp. more

RockyMounts TieRod Roof Bike Rack Review - 2012 Volkswagen Jetta

Today on our 2012 Volkswagen Jetta, we're going to do a test fit of the RockyMounts TieRod Bike Rack, product number RKY1014. This will be on top of our Rhino Rack Aero Bar Roof System. We've already got our bike rack set up so let's go ahead and mount it on the vehicle. To install our bike rack, we'll simply take two rubber straps, run them underneath the front bar, and then tighten them down with the Allen bolt. Once we've got the front tightened down, we'll go ahead and move to the rear attachment point using the wing nuts to tighten it down. It's best to tighten it down evenly from front to rear. more
