Hello to All,

just put my crossbars on my v70 and got a set of four locks. Trouble is I can't figure out how to install them onto the crossbars. I'm sure I'm missing something easy but can't identify it.

Thanks for you assistance,

Rich

Hmmmm- Are these factory Volvo crossbars, or something aftermarket like Yakima, or Thule?

Drat- the one I know the least about...

If you post a couple of pictures, I'll try to help, but I've never played with the OEM racks before.

When i went into a Thule sales-room recently, i noticed that their CROSS-BARS also have become quite aerodynamic. No longer the boxy-rod type. Kinda liked it.
