I wish we did but oddly enough we don't have any install videos for the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 on any roof rack as I just went through all of them and they are all basically review videos on how the rack functions once installed. Did you check out the install instructions? I attached them on this page for you to check out and it shows how they attach to the top channels of crossbars.
