Hollywood Racks F2 Spoiler - Manual (Page 5)

4. Installation Using Roof Rack
Adapter Straps
These padded straps provide a convenient location
for top strap attachment when regular upper straps
or hatch anchors
can’t be used. They wrap around
the raised rails or load bar and must be used with
the quick connect upper straps.
There are vehicles
(i.e. Infiniti J35/7) where hatch anchors are used for
the bottom or side straps and roof rack adapter
straps are used for the upper attachment system.

Installation on vehicle:
a) Rotate the “hook side” D-ring 90 degrees so it is
“length wise” in line with the strap per fig 25. Wrap
the D-ring strap around the load bar or raised rail.
Insert the hook side D-ring through the padded
side D-ring and pull so it is snug. Be sure the
pad is between the strap and load bar or raised rail
per fig. 26. Then rotate the hook side D-ring
back to its original position.
b) Remove the regular upper straps from the upper-
most buckles and replace with the quick connect
straps (Fig 27). Insert the strap through the bottom
of the buckle while depressing the buckle’s spring
loaded tab. Hooks should be facing up.
