How Do I Install A Yakima HalfBack 2 On A 2019 Volvo XC60

Question:

Im interested in getting the Yakima HalfBack 2 for my 2019 Volvo XC60. Are there any photos or videos of this product installed on my car that I can follow to make sure I install it correctly? I saw a video of the rack being installed on an Audi SUV, and there was a mention of flipping the straps and ping them down but it was hard to make out how it clips inside. Just wondering if Ill have to do something similar when I install it on my vehicle, and if so it would be nice to see a detail of that install step. Thanks!

I did some research about the installation of the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms, part # Y02634, on your 2019 Volvo XC60. This trunk rack will be installed on hub setting 3 for your vehicle. In addition, the top and bottom hooks will have to be installed in anchor mode. I have included the video link of this rack being installed on a 2020 Audi Q7. Pay close attention at the 4:21 mark. It shows how the hooks secure inside your hatch in the anchor mode. On your XC60, it will look like this at the top and bottom of your hatch.

I have also included a video review of this rack and the Yakima HalfBack fit notes for your vehicle below.
